MIAMI, FL – May 15, 2010 – How
does a young education company best help in the aftermath of one the most
devastating tragedies in the Americas? Months after the Haitian earthquake,
Crimson Oak team members still asked themselves this very question. Eventually the answer came in the form of a
partnership with the Haitian-American Chamber of Commerce to develop the leadership
ability of the young professionals within the Haitian Diaspora.
The Young Leaders Program will consist of
$25,000 in-kind services and development of unique educational programs that shed
light on how business can be used to rebuild the community in Haiti. To be eligible, young professional members of
the HACC will have to demonstrate a clear commitment to how they expect their
future career will help the rebuilding of Haiti. The HACC and its affiliates have over 100 members.
“Crimson Oak has shown
tremendous leadership. The HACC is quite
appreciative of this gesture especially from a young company. This continued commitment from Crimson Oak
will make the U.S. Haitian Diaspora to be more effective in helping Haiti
rebuild.” – Francois Guillaume, Executive
Director of HACC.
Crimson Oak’s Giving Back Program is a reflection
of its community’s values – commitment, leadership and empathy. The Program resonates with the Academy’s
mission: to save and cultivate leadership globally. “Long
after the dust settles, the Haitian Diaspora - specifically its business community-
will have to be prepared to lead Haiti’s human capital reconstruction. Crimson Oak is proud to play a small,
constructive role in aiding the Haitian Diaspora lead in its country’s
revitalization.” stated CEO Kevin Omar Williams.
