(MENAFN- GlobeNewsWire - Nasdaq) Fund provides air purifiers & supplies to cystic fibrosis community impacted by wildfires
Los Angeles, CA, Jan. 30, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Claire's Place Foundation , a non-profit organization providing support to children and families affected by cystic fibrosis (CF), is pleased to announce a lifesaving partnership with Oransi , a leading U.S. based electric motor technology company specializing in high-performance air purifiers.
In response to the hazardous air quality caused by ongoing wildfires in Los Angeles, Oransi has generously donated their acclaimed Mod Series Air Purifiers with a one-year filter to Claire's Place. The air purifiers are being distributed through the Foundation's LA Fire Emergency Fund , which also provides grants for air purifiers, temporary lodging, food and other supplies to safeguard the health of the Southern California CF community affected by the smoke-filled air.
“We are incredibly grateful to Oransi for their generous donation and their partnership in supporting our CF community,” said Claire's Place Foundation Executive Director Melissa Yeager.“The Mod Series Air Purifiers provide a vital resource to families facing the compounded challenges of CF and wildfire smoke. Oransi's generosity ensures that those most at risk can breathe a little easier during this crisis, which unfortunately will be a long-term threat in our air.”
Many grant recipients are receiving the Oransi Mod+ Air Purifier which is designed for large spaces, capturing smoke particles, pollen and other allergens while neutralizing odors and VOCs. The purifier has been praised by The New York Times Wirecutter for its outstanding performance and is independently certified by ENERGY STAR®️, AHAM and CARB. With Oransi handling direct shipping from their Virginia warehouse, grant recipients have already received this critical resource.
“Clean air is vital for everyone, especially during wildfire events, but it's absolutely essential for those living with CF,” said Oransi CEO Peter Mann. “As a company founded on the need to help families breathe easier, we're proud to partner with Claire's Place Foundation to provide air purifiers to CF families in Los Angeles. It's an honor to support such an impactful organization and contribute to the health and safety of their community.”
