USA West

GEM USA West was established to offer quicker response ability for any disasters that may occur on this side of the country, with the fast ability to service western and central states. This optimal location also allows for Pacific Maritime exports to take place to locations around the world. So far, GEM USA West has assisted in many of the devastating fires in California, the more recent flooding, as well as with homeless groups, such as the Torris Shelter. This assistance comes in the form of brand-new mattresses, home goods, Family Necessity Kits, tents, diabetic medical aid, humidifiers, and cash assistance cards.
