UPS Foundation’s Global Humanitarian Relief Network Uses Collaboration and Extensive Planning to Bring Rapid Support to Address Urgent Needs

Even before Hurricane Laura devastated coastlines in Louisiana and Texas, The UPS Foundation and its network of relief organizations were building a response to quickly address the needs of impacted communities.

The extensive damage resulting from the storm left impassable roads, inhabitable housing, and an infrastructure strained to deliver essential items. Providing relief in the midst of a pandemic is challenging and complex, but UPS and its relief partners were ready.

UPS today announced the appointment of Nando Cesarone to President, U.S. Operations and Scott Price to President, UPS International.

Nando Cesarone previously served as President UPS International and in that role led the company’s business operations in more than 220 countries and territories outside of the U.S. Prior to that, he served as President of UPS’s European operations, leading UPS Europe to record business performance during the company’s five-year investment program. Cesarone also served as President of the Asia Pacific Region.
