Corkman behind international relief effort

LIFE-SAVING consignments of food and medical supplies for victims of the Asian tsunami disaster are being organised by a Corkman who is the current president of Junior Chamber International.

Cobh-born Kevin Cullinane, a brand manager with Heineken Ireland, has reported a phenomenal response from JCI members in 105 countries.

“From all over the world our members have expressed their desire to help the tsunami victims in Asia. Several have also requested that JCI networks be used to effectively help communities that can be reached by local JCI members,” Mr Cullinane said.
