QNET Steps Up To Support Tsunami Victims In Indonesia

Asian direct selling company QNET has stepped in to support relief and rehabilitation efforts to those affected by the recent Tsunami in Indonesia in the provinces of Banten and South Lampung.

The tsunami which struck parts of Western Indonesia without warning in late December was caused by an underwater landslide induced by the eruption of the volcanic island Anak Krakatau.

It resulted in hundreds of deaths and destroyed homes, leaving many of the survivors without shelter, electricity or access to food and clean water.

QNET, which has a prominent presence in Indonesia through offices in Jakarta, Bali and Surabaya, mobilised its staff and distributor network to help out with relief efforts, and a fund-raising campaign.

QNET volunteers gathered blankets, sheets, non-perishable food, vitamins and medicine and distributed it in the affected communities. The fundraising campaign raised USD 25,000 towards relief efforts to which QNET has contributed USD 15,000.

“Indonesia has been home to QNET for nearly 20 years. Back in 2004, when the Indian Ocean Tsunami destroyed large parts of Western Sumatra, we were there to help out with relief and rehabilitation efforts.

We are proud to have adopted a village in Aceh in 2005 and help with rebuilding schools and homes. We have always done our part to help our local communities whenever natural disasters have struck in Indonesia, which also impacted the lives of many of our distributors.

We are part of the community and we are committed to supporting those who need help in line with our mission, RYTHM (Raise Yourself To Help Mankind)”, said Trevor Kuna, CEO.
