LASKO DONATES 2,000 HOME ENVIRONMENT PRODUCTS TO AID IN HURRICANE IAN RELIEF EFFORTS


Leader in Home Comfort Partners with All Hands and Hearts to Provide Assistance with
Damage Restoration

WEST CHESTER, Pa., Oct. 18, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Lasko Products, a market leader in home comfort, is donating 2,000 home environment products to help the survivors restore their homes after the damage caused by Hurricane Ian.

Lasko has deployed a truck of hurricane relief supplies set to arrive in Florida this week. The truck will contain a shipment of water damage restoration and ventilation products to aid those affected by the disastrous weather and flooding caused by the recent storm.

Products included in the donation will be a variety of fans, air movers, air purifiers, and dehumidifiers. The donation will assist those affected by helping to eliminate excess moisture and humidity; keeping the air clean from mold, spores, and dust; and providing long-term air quality control. 

To facilitate the donation, Lasko is partnering with All Hands and Hearts, an organization committed to addressing the immediate and long-term needs of global communities impacted by disasters. All Hands and Hearts recently pledged to remain in southwest Florida with a volunteer-powered program for a minimum of 12 months to conduct mucking and gutting, mold sanitization, and partial and complete home rebuild projects on houses damaged or destroyed by Hurricane Ian, where Lasko's donation will make a significant impact.

The truck and fuel have been donated by Epes Logistics Services, which has been Lasko's transportation partner for more than 12 years and will be driven by Yoandy Perez.

"We were deeply saddened to hear about the tragedies caused by the recent storm. Our hearts are with the communities and residents of those affected," said Lasko Chief Executive Officer, Ed Vlacich. "We understand that supplies and water damage restoration equipment may be limited in weather-impacted areas and hope that this donation will help the community begin to rebuild after such devastation."

Supplies will be distributed to the residents of Port Charlotte, Florida, and surrounding neighborhoods this week. For more information on water damage restoration supplies and ventilation products, please visit Lasko.com, B-Air.com, and GuardianTechnologies.com.
