This week we saw two extraordinary examples of giving from two high-profile tech CEOs.
On Sunday, a cargo plane carrying 50 million pieces of donated PPE, including goggles, face shields, and protective suits, landed in New York City. Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff @Benioff made it happen with the help of Alibaba, and he’s working on a second shipment this week. A few days later, Twitter and Square CEO Jack Dorsey @jack announced he would donate $1 billion (about 28% of his wealth) for a fund to fight COVID-19, including an initial $100,000 to address food insecurity in the U.S.
Following Benioff's and Dorsey’s lead, Global4PL has donated several thousand masks to a local hospital, and we are in the process of donating a few thousand face shields as well.
I am truly proud of my team for sourcing, importing, and delivering these units flawlessly. We owe a debt of gratitude to all healthcare workers and first responders who are on the front lines day in, day out. Their sacrifices for the greater good are humbling.
Let’s all do our part. Every contribution helps, no matter how small. Let’s help protect those who are protecting all of us.

4 年People need to learn about giving back verses take take take. ... as BEZOS, who early on told his healthy employees to give their sick days to his employees who were ill… as he sits with a trillion dollars. He CLEARLY hasn't learned what giving back is about. It's absolutely and utterly shameful. It's actually rather "stunning" ... And I don't mean in a "beautiful" way
