PR Newswire, and China-based Xinhua PR Newswire, will waive fees for

and public audiences in the United States and China. PR Newswire's
corporate social responsibility partner, CSRwire, will also waive fees for

"It's hard to believe that we are facing another natural disaster of
such severe magnitude in Asia within a week of the last one, but we are, so
those organizations with the power to help should be doing so immediately,"
said Dave Armon, chief operating officer, PR Newswire. "Just as we did last
week with the crisis in Myanmar, we are granting access to our network in
the U.S. and China so that we can assist organizations in communicating
their relief and recovery initiatives to aid the victims of this
devastating earthquake."
