On Saturday, July 17, CEMEX in Mexico and Tigres professional football club will hold their second humanitarian aid drive at Estadio Universitario (Autonomous University of Nuevo Leon Stadium) before their next preseason game. The event is part of continuing efforts to help those affected by hurricane Alex in the northeastern Mexican state of Nuevo Leon. In their previous drive, 30 metric tons of items were collected and subsequently donated to the local Red Cross.
Hurricane Alex produced record-breaking rainfall during July 1 and 2 creating widespread flooding throughout the state, leaving thousands homeless or without access to water or electricity.
Since the disaster occurred, CEMEX has undertaken multiple efforts to help those affected:
If you are in the Nuevo Leon area, we strongly encourage you to go to Estadio Universitario between 4:30 and 8:30 pm on Saturday July 17 and donate to this very important cause. You can also drop off donations at the following locations throughout Mexico until July 16 and from 10:00 am to 4:00 pm:
