Imperial’s US employees driving support for Oklahoma tornado victims

Imperial Tobacco employees in the US are helping to raise funds to support families in Oklahoma affected by last month’s devastating tornado.

And Commonwealth – Altadis has pledged to match the donations made by its employees to the American Red Cross Oklahoma Disaster Relief Fund.

The idea came from Bonnie Marks, fleet supervisor in Travel & Fleet Management, who said that employees felt they had to help in some way.
About 24 people, including seven children, were killed when the category five tornado tore through Moore, a suburb of Oklahoma City.

“It’s great to see that our people care enough to lend a helping hand to those left devastated by events in Oklahoma,” said Kevin Freudenthal, region director Americas.
