Medical Teams International and the Seahawks raise nearly $22,000 for Asia Pacific disaster relief

The Seattle Seahawks partnered with Medical Teams International to collect donations for Pacific Rim disaster survivors yesterday, Sunday, October 11, at Qwest Field prior to the Seahawks big win over the Jaguars.


Before the game, Seahawks three-time Pro Bowl middle linebacker, Lofa Tatupu volunteered to match the first $10,000 donated by the fans in attendance.


Seahawks fans raised more than $11,500 dollars. With Tatupu’s contribution, the effort raised almost $22,000 for the much needed relief efforts.


If you did not make it out to Qwest Field for the game, you can still donate to Medical Teams International’s disaster relief in the Asia Pacific region.
