Aidmatrix Partners with the Pan American Development Foundation (PADF) to Enhance Disaster Relief in Latin America and the Caribbean |
DALLAS, TX - April 14, 2009 - The Aidmatrix Foundation Inc. today announced its partnership with the Pan American Development Foundation (PADF), an independent, non-profit organization that creates public-private partnerships to assist the least advantaged people in Latin America and the Caribbean. The Pan American Development Foundation will join the Aidmatrix Network® and utilize Aidmatrix' supply chain technology to manage the donations for humanitarian relief throughout the area.
 PADF focuses on creating sustainability in developing countries, strengthening local communities and enhancing disaster preparedness and response in those countries. The partnership will help to promote disaster mitigation and risk reduction. Aidmatrix lays the groundwork for an integrated and coordinated approach to donations management by connecting private sector, government and leading nonprofit entities through a series of donations matching and management systems.

Christine Herridge of PADF states, "Aidmatrix technology enables thousands of organizations, companies and agencies to collaborate with needs specified by local, national and regional authorities. The synergies will enable an exponentially greater capacity to leverage available cash, in-kind resources, volunteers and more to attend to urgent needs throughout the hemisphere."
Through this partnership, PADF will impact millions of lives in Latin America and the Caribbean. In addition, Aidmatrix brings more potential donors and recipients to the community through its partnerships with other leading disaster-, medical- and hunger-relief organizations.
