Datran Media Joins Forces With Employees and Its Partners to Support the Ongoing Needs of 9/11 Victims' Families and Relief Workers
Tuesday's Children Fundraiser and Remembrance Program Call to Action
NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwire - September 10, 2007) - Datran Media, today
announced that on Tuesday, September 11, 2007, a percentage of revenue from
every transaction generated by the online performance marketing company
will be donated to Tuesday's Children to help support 9/11 victims'
families and relief workers. Tuesday's Children is a non-profit family
service organization that has made a long-term commitment to every
individual who was directly impacted by the events of September 11, 2001.
In addition to the contribution, Datran Media has also invited employees
and its client base to participate in the fundraiser by donating to
Tuesday's Children or a related charity of their choice. Based on similar
non-profit fundraisers that the company has launched in the past, Datran
Media expects to raise thousands of dollars. Tuesday's Children plans to
use the funds to operate a wide range of programming including mentoring,
educational and career guidance, leadership training and life management
programs, all designed to address the unmet needs of 9/11 family members at
each and every stage of life and recovery.
"Tuesday's Children is honored to be the beneficiary of this generous gift
from Datran Media," said Carmine Calzonetti, president of Tuesday's
Children. "This donation will make an immediate and important impact on
the lives of each and every 9/11 family member we serve. Particularly now,
as Tuesday's Children expands our programs to include Ground Zero rescue
and recovery workers, the support of good corporate citizens, like Datran
Media, is allowing us to forge new ways to help the thousands of people for
whom September 11th is still a heavy burden to bear."
"In addition to our interest in working with Tuesday's Children to expand
support to rescue and recovery workers," said Datran Media Vice President
of Marketing Lana McGilvray, "the Datran Media team is also particularly
impressed by the organization's recent global efforts. This year,
Tuesday's Children is helping children of 9/11 victims who have now entered
their teenage years to forge bonds with teenagers around the world who have
been similarly harmed by terrorist acts and the loss of family members. The
goal is to foster common understandings through shared experiences, a very
necessary healing step for all."
