In the wake of damage left behind by cyclone Gabrielle, Infometrics has decided to donate to the Cyclone Gabrielle Community Support fundraiser created and organised by Stuff.
Infometrics, a New Zealand economic consultancy agency, works with several local organisations nationwide, and they are determined to play their part in helping communities shattered by the effects of the cyclone to recover.
“Those affected are the same people we work with. They’re our clients, our friends, and our family. We know that local economies, but most importantly, local communities, have been hit hard,” said Infometrics Chief Executive and Principal Economist Brad Olsen.
Infometrics has committed to donating $10,000 to the fundraiser. Olsen has stated his gratitude for the efforts of agencies across the country. However, locals supporting locals has been the most impressive so far.
“I’ve personally visited several of these areas before the Cyclone and have seen local businesses and communities in action. We’ve seen how strong those local bonds are and how important they become during challenges like these.”
Olsen urges businesses who have the means to take action and help the recovery within their communities to bring business back in full stride.
The Cyclone Gabrielle Community support fundraiser is accessible through the Stuff website.
