NetEnrich Company Blog - ROC Your IT Operations

It’s been about three months since NetEnrich announced its intent to donate 5% of new revenue generated by Ingram Micro VTN members to support the staggering rebuilding needs of residents in Joplin, MO., the site of a rare Class 5 tornado that left an enormous scar across that city on May 22, 2011. The unprecedented storm killed 162 people and caused catastrophic devastation, including millions in damage and thousands of homes destroyed. Our goal when we announced this incentive program was — and remains — raising enough money to offset the cost of  building a Habitat for Humanity home in Joplin.

In the movie “Twister,” there is a somber scene where the storm chasing team struggles to describe the power of an F5 tornado to a guest. For those living in Joplin, MO, that power became terrifyingly real on May 22, 2011. The city lost 162 residents and suffered catastrophic devastation, including millions in damage and thousands of homes destroyed.
