Cemex rocks

Hats off to Gilberto Perez, president of CEMEX, for presenting a large holiday gift to the Bush-Clinton Katrina Fund. Perez handed over a check for nearly $570,000 to the fund on behalf of his compay. The donation is the result of CEMEX employees' tremendous response to the company's matching gifts program. As part of the plan to contribute to Hurricane Katrina relief efforts, CEMEX matched, two-to-one, all employee contributions made by Sept. 30. For employees whose gifts equaled or exceeded 1 percent of their respective salaries, the company increased the match to three-to-one. Your comment?
