VISTA, Calif., April 5, 2010 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- EcoBlu Products, Inc. (OTCBB:ECOB) over the weekend launched a food drive to collect non-perishable items destined for Haiti. EcoBlu Products along with many sponsors have come together to donate four pre-fabricated buildings engineered to withstand hurricanes and earthquakes, providing adequate shelter to an orphaned camp housing 85 children. The local media helped rally San Diegans to successfully raise an enormous amount of food to accompany the buildings. The food drive will be ongoing all month with drop boxes located at all of the San Diego Lowe's Home Centers and the EcoBlu Products Vista headquarters.
Rebuilding Haiti is no small task. EcoBlu Products wants to show the world that BLUWOOD™ coated lumber is the right choice to rebuild Haiti. EcoBlu solves all the issues with Mold, Wood-Rot and Termites and provides a renewable resource opposed to other construction methods.
"I am overwhelmed with the response we have received to our efforts. We started this project knowing that Haiti needed our help but all the people and organizations that have joined our efforts are truly amazing," said Steve Conboy, President and CEO of EcoBlu Products.
