We invite all textile and sewn products companies and professionals to join us in donating to honor Alamac and their families.”

All donations can be made through the GoFundMe account “Alamac Cares”, which was established by Jay Humphrey on behalf of Robert S. Hester with the goal of raising $100,000 to assist in the recovery.
