Victoria Mutual joins the support for Haiti

Friday, January 15, 2010

The Victoria Mutual Group is joining the humanitarian efforts to reach out to the people of Haiti, whose lives have been negatively altered by the devastating earthquake that hit the island on Tuesday, January 12, 2010. Victoria Mutual has established an account for its employees and members of the public to make donations to assist in relief efforts.

Monetary donations may be deposited to VMBS Haitian Relief Account Number 25324104 at any VMBS Branch across the island. Jamaicans living in the Diaspora, who wish to assist in the effort may contact our Representative Offices in the USA, Canada or the United Kingdom to make their donations.

Victoria Mutual also encourages persons to donate new or used (good condition) clothing for persons of all ages, canned food and bottled water to any Victoria Mutual location. All donations made will be handed over to the Jamaica Red Cross and Salvation Army for dispatch to Haiti.

Victoria Mutual is one of the oldest and well-respected financial institutions headquartered in Kingston, Jamaica with operations in the United Kingdom, USA and Canada. The flagship company is The Victoria Mutual Building Society (VMBS), which began operations over 130 years ago with the vision of transforming Jamaican savers into homeowners. Over the years, the Society has developed a network of loyal members, customers and partners. VMBS and its strategic business units provide a suite of financial and other services including savings and loans; wealth management and stock broking; foreign exchange trading; money transfer; general insurance and real estate services.
