“The devastation in Haiti is a tragedy that should affect us all”

This donation will be made to the American Red Cross Haiti Relief and Development Fund to support emergency relief and recovery efforts for those people affected by the devastating earthquake that struck on January 12.

The firm is collecting donations from shareholders, associates and staff, as well as sponsoring a “denim day” on Friday, January 22, to encourage as many people as possible to participate from each of its nine offices.

“The devastation in Haiti is a tragedy that should affect us all,” said Dickie McCamey Managing Director and Chief Operating Officer Jeffrey Wiley. “The orphans who arrived here in Pittsburgh yesterday are a powerful reminder that we all have a responsibility to do whatever we can to help the people of Haiti in their hour of need. We at Dickie McCamey are honored to help.”
