A global organization representing freight forwarders and customs brokers has gathered more than $110,000 to help combat the Ebola outbreak.
The money was collected last week during the FIATA World Congress in Istanbul.
“What started as an off-the-cuff comment in the Advisory Body Safety and Security Meeting about the devastating Ebola situation in West Africa grew into a full-fledge fund garnering vast support and enthusiasm,” FIATA said in a statement.
The organization will donate the money to Red Cross/Red Crescent and Médecines Sans Frontières in equal portions.
