Henry Schein, its supplier partners, and the Henry Schein Cares Foundation have fulfilled its commitment to contribute more than $1 million in financial donations and healthcare supplies to 11 relief organizations serving communities affected by Superstorm Sandy.
The donations were made through Henry Schein Cares, the company's global corporate social responsibility program, in partnership with the company's supplier partners. Recipients included AmeriCares, Direct Relief International, and Heart to Heart International.
All proceeds of the fund were applied directly and completely to support the relief efforts of the following local organizations:
- Island Harvest
- FoodBank of Monmouth and Ocean Counties
- North Shore Animal League America
- ADA Foundation Hurricane Sandy Fund
- New York State Dental Foundation Relief Fund
- Empire State Medical, Scientific and Educational Foundation
- Graybeards
In addition, the company held drives for Team Schein members to donate goods at its headquarter offices in Melville, NY. In all, the Team Schein member campaign collected more than 2,900 pounds of food, clothing, shoes, coats, linens, diapers, and other personal items for Island Harvest and the Salvation Army. Henry Schein Cares also provided Hurricane Sandy Cleaning Kits (including gloves, masks, gauze, paper towels, drape sheets, trash bags, and hand sanitizer) to Team Schein members who needed assistance in their personal clean-up efforts.
