[QUOTE="moreluck, post: 1050295, member: 1246"] UPS pledges $1.5 million in storm aid Business First Date: Friday, November 2, 2012, 2:25pm EDT United Parcel Service says its operations have been restored in the wake of Hurricane Sandy. United Parcel Service Inc. announced Friday that it has pledged $1.5 million in cash and in-kind support to aid in the recovery efforts following the devastation caused by Hurricane Sandy this week along the Northeast United States. The Atlanta-based package shipper (NYSE: UPS) — which bases its largest sorting hub and its UPS Airlines division in Louisville — also said in a news release that all UPS package, freight and logistics operations have been restored, and that UPS employees throughout the region are working to provide service to the affected areas, although many businesses remain closed and some locations are inaccessible. The UPS aid, the release said, is comprised of a $250,000 grant to the American Red Cross to help with the sheltering needs of storm victims; $250,000 in logistical aid for urgent response; and $1 million in cash and in-kind support to a variety of relief organizations throughout 2013. Next week, for example, UPS will deliver 14 truckloads of relief supplies into some of the most heavily impacted areas in New York and New Jersey, the release said. [/QUOTE]
