"We are delighted with Honeywell's generous support for rebuilding tasks that will be needed in Haiti," stated Gary A. Officer, President and CEO of Rebuilding Together. "We are confident that with the involvement of Operation USA, we will, together, provide much needed reconstruction work on the schools and community centers within the country of Haiti."
