FSI Client Involved with Chilean Miner Rescue

Chilean Miners


FSI, along with the rest of the world, stood transfixed as the story unfolded of the 33 Chilean miners trapped nearly half a mile underground for 68 days. OnlineSocialMedia.net reported that during the rescue period, worldwide social media traffic surpassed 4 million page viewers per minute, and multiple television networks saw their viewers doubled during that period. So we join you in celebrating the rescue of those 33 men, who finally are restored to their families and friends.

FSI was especially proud of one of our own clients, Campus Crusade for Christ, who became involved in the rescue efforts and provided t-shirts to the trapped miners, who voted to wear them as they were rescued (see photo above). Included on the shirt was the apt passage from Psalm 95:4 – “In His hand are the depths of the earth”.

FSI has handled Campus Crusade’s “Freshman Survival Kits” project since 2002, which is a massive annual distribution of books, CDs, bibles, and other items to colleges and universities around the country. At times, this project has required over 1,000,000 pieces and up to 15 tractor-trailer loads worth of small package shipments to be shipped out in various order sizes. All of it must leave FSI’s facility within a 2 day period. We have witnessed Campus Crusade’s generosity and excellence in all they do, and are proud to call them our friends.
