Our employees in the DRC truly believe the principles embedded in Tifie philosophy of generosity and giving back. Both the trucking and the brick manufacturing enterprises support local humanitarian efforts: the trucking enterprise supports a youth center and the bricking enterprise contributes to the funding and development of school facilities, educational materials as well as renovations to existing schools. Over the holidays, our DRC employees collected donations of clothes, toys and other necessary items to give to an orphanage in MasaMuna run by Catholic sisters. It was an emotional and moving experience to see such young children in great amount of needs. One of our employees, Karine, made the comment that we often have excess in our lives that can be vital for someone else.
