Donation accepted as WHO declares H1N1 first pandemic in 41 years

Help Goodwill Ambassadors Provide Clean Air to Those in Need; Plans to Bring Products to North America

NEW YORK, June 15 /PRNewswire/ -- SANYO Biomedical and Environmental Solutions (SANYO), a division of SANYO North America, announces that it is donating professional-use 'Virus Washer' air purification systems to the World Associations of Former United Nations Internes and Fellows, Inc. (WAFUNIF), a non-profit, non government organization that consults with the United Nations. This comes just days after the World Health Organization declares the H1N1 flu a worldwide pandemic and weeks after several of the same units were donated to local New York airports and schools to assist in re-opening schools and provide an added line of defence against H1N1. The SANYO 'Virus Washer' units will be donated by the surviving family of Hope White-Davis, former President of WAFUNIF.

Gerald White-Davis, initially receiving the units on behalf of the late Dr. Hope P. White-Davis, former President of WAFUNIF, said, "We present these 'Virus Washer' units to WAFUNIF in loving memory of Dr. Hope P. White-Davis. It was her dream to take action that would provide for the greater g
