Radians Donates Over $150,000 In PPE To Support Hurricane Helene Relief Efforts

(MENAFN- PR Newswire) MEMPHIS, Tenn., Oct. 9, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Radians®, a leading manufacturer of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), has donated over $150,000 of essential PPE to the nonprofit disaster relief organization Eight Days of Hope, whose volunteers have been deployed around the clock since Hurricane Helene struck.

Helene's path of destruction has devastated the southeastern U.S. and has left thousands of residents and businesses in urgent need of PPE to begin the long and difficult process of rebuilding their homes and lives. Radians' donation of vision protection, hand protection, respirators, hi-vis apparel, and rainwear will provide volunteers, first responders, and affected families with the necessary safety gear for cleanup, recovery, and rebuild.

"This disaster strikes very close to our homes and our hearts," said Philip Young, Radians VP of Business Development, who oversees the company's garment manufacturing facility in Thomasville, NC.

"We are incredibly thankful that our plant was spared from the impact of Helene," Young continued. "However, we are very concerned about the friends, clients, and communities in Asheville and western North Carolina who have been deeply affected. This PPE donation holds special significance for all of us at Radians, particularly our North Carolina team, who has also been collecting and delivering water, diapers, toilet tissue, and other items to western North Carolina."

"Both Radians and Eight Days of Hope are deeply committed to supporting communities in need, particularly in times of crisis," said CEO Mike Tutor. "We are honored to partner with them in their extraordinary efforts to provide hands on assistance and aid to the victims of Hurricane Helene."
