Boeing to donate to Java earthquake relief work

Boeing on December 13 said had donated US $300,000 to assist survivors of a recent "devastating" earthquake in Indonesia.

"With the severity of damages caused by the recent earthquake, it will likely be months before many families can return to their homes," said Bonaria Siahaan, CEO of Yayasan CARE Peduli, the Indonesian affiliate of the international non-governmental organisation CARE. "We appreciate the rapid support from Boeing, which will help 550 households meet their daily needs"

Boeing stands ready to assist our Indonesian colleagues, friends and neighbours who have been affected by this tragic event," said Ziad Ojakli, executive vice president of government operations at Boeing.

Around 600 people died in or remain missing since a 5.6 magnitude earthquake hit West Java in late November 2022.
