Trtrtj Parts Service & Body Shop: 234-7514, 6881, 6826 Trade and Industry said Wednesday. The ministry said the expected improvement from 1992’s 5.8 percent growth was based in part on anticipated strong perfor­ mances by other Southeast Asian economies and slightly higher growth in the major industrial nations. Singapore depends heavily on foreign trade. The first quarter’s 7.1 percent growth was down slightly from 7.4 percent in the previous quar­ ter, but up from the 5.3 percent in 1992’s first quarter, the ministry added.

NEW YORK (AP) - Despite the poor economy, Americans gave away 2.01 percent of their personal incomes last year, the most since 1971, an annual survey found. Foundation giving also was up, by 3.8 percent over 1991 after in­ flation was factored in, while cor­ porate donations fell by the same rate, said the survey released Tues- day by the American Association of Fund-Raising Counsel Trust for Philanthropy. Overall, donations to nonprofit groups reached an estimated $124.31 billion in 1992. Adjusted for inflation, that was a 2.3 percent increase over 1991. The study said individuals gave $109.98 billion, foundations gave $8.33 billion and corporations gave $6 billion. Religious groups attracted the most donations of any type of char­ ity last year, $56.7 billion, up 1.2 percent after inflation. 28-MARIANAS VARIETY NEWS AND VIEWS-FRIDAY-MAY 28,1993 B usiness/Finance;s!ÌìS::i Exchange rates Early end to global NEW YORK (AP) - Foreign Exchange, New York prices.

■ E a c h d a y i n th e C N M I, volunteers are providing emergency aid to people in their communities.

Last year, the N M I Chapter responded to 15 fam ilies who were victim s o f fire 7 flood victim s and 9 fam ilies needing food and shelter 39 emergency com munications including medical emergencies and messages to m ilitary fam ilies. H undreds o f fa m ilie s were assisted by NM I volunteers assigned to Guam, Rota and Tinian during Typhoons-Omar and Gay. Thousands o f people received assistance from ARC s t a f f a n d volunteers fo r other needs.

In addition to disaster services, the Red Cross also provides First A id , CPR, Swimming and Water S a fe ty training. In 1 9 9 2 , th e NMI Chapter taught more than 117 Health and S a fe ty courses and certified1,523 people, giving trained individuals the skills to help s a v e a lif e during an emergency.

Alm ost everything we do - helping disaster victims, teaching lifesaving, getting blood to hospitals, providing emergency com m unications between fam ilies and m ilitary personnel stationed overseas, or instructing people about the HIV/AIDS c r is is - is in some w ay related to emergency services. B ut to be able to provide these services the Red Cross relies on public support, volunteers in the com m unity who are w illing to donate their time, and donations from caring individuals and businesses.
