"It is important to remember that you are part of a community, and when your community is suffering, it is your social responsibility to help any way you can." Danilo Reyes, ASN President
On September 20, 2017, Hurricane Maria struck Puerto Rico. In response to this tragedy, ASN began collecting donations to ship to those in need in Puerto Rico.

We just make the first of what we hope will be many shipments. Anyone who would like to help continuing ASN's efforts should contact us at 401.274.9300, or visit us at 500 Broad St., Providence, RI.
