As a human health care company dedicated to improving the lives of patients worldwide, Eisai strongly supports the efforts of the American Red Cross to help those affected by this devastating disaster.

The donation from Eisai will be divided between local and national relief efforts. $100,000 will be given directly to the American Red Cross chapter of Research Triangle Park, NC, where Eisai's main U.S. manufacturing facility is located.

Eisai sincerely hopes that its donation and support will help with relief efforts to aid victims of this disaster and prays for the early recovery of the afflicted area.
