Together We Can: Corporate Partners

During a natural disaster of this scale, it is critical for corporations, individuals and governments to join forces to help disaster victims to recover.

Leading the way, AmerisourceBergen and its associates teamed up to raise more than $700,000 in support of the relief efforts for this devastating hurricane season.  AmerisourceBergen applied its core business activities - pharmaceutical distribution and services - to the hurricane relief effort, partnering with the Red Cross and several relief agencies to ship bottled water and medical supplies to the Gulf Coast region.

"This tragedy has affected the lives of so many people in the Gulf area, including many of our own associates and customers," said R. David Yost, CEO of AmerisourceBergen. "Consistent with our tradition, AmerisourceBergen channeled our support for disaster victims through the American Red Cross.  With Red Cross, we can be confident our contributions are going directly to help those in need."

This generous show of support from our partners like AmerisourceBergen has matched the historic dimension of the storm. Our partnerships are essential to achieving our mission; together we can ensure that the Red Cross will be there, at any hour of the day or night, helping our friends and neighbors in need. We thank our friends at AmerisourceBergen for their ongoing support of the Red Cross.

AmerisourceBergen, one of the largest pharmaceutical services companies in the world, is headquartered in Valley Forge.
