AIP Foundation and The UPS Foundation have signed a memorandum of understanding to announce their cooperation on a new project, Safety Delivered. The signing ceremony took place during an American Chamber of Commerce business event attended by senior American diplomats on the occasion of U.S. President Barack Obama’s historic first visit to Vietnam. Greig Craft, AIP Foundation President, and Jeff McLean, Managing Director of UPS Vietnam and South Asia District Agent Operations, renewed their commitment to reducing road crash fatality and injury in Asia.

This project continues a partnership with The UPS Foundation started in 2011 that has spanned projects such as AIP Foundation’s signature, school-based Helmets for Kids project in Vietnam, Cambodia, and Thailand; the National Child Helmet Action Plan in Vietnam; and the Head Safe. Helmet On. project, which aimed at advocating for the passage of the new Road Traffic law in Cambodia and for increased passenger helmet use, especially among children.
