“Our thoughts are with those who have been impacted by the earthquakes in Turkey and Syria,” said Dan Sulivan, Chief Executive Officer at Collette.

“We’re thankful that we’re able to make contributions to the relief efforts through the Collette Foundation. Both ‘Word Central Kitchen’ and ‘Direct Relief’ have been doing and continue to do great work to help those affected by this disaster.”
