HOLIDAY 2008 DONATION: Children's Aid Society

The Children's Aid society has been a victim of the recent economic downturn.  With much of their annual funding coming from financial institutions, the 155-year-old organization has been hurt greatly by the banking crisis.

One of their programs hit hardest was EXCEL. This program, aimed at placing underprivileged New York City youth on a higher education track as early as the 8th grade, is designed to prepare students for college and give them the means to succeed through their college career.

At Alloy Media + Marketing, we understand the value of a college education in a maturing child's life.  Our wish is to help do our part to guarantee that students who have persevered through the years, challenging themselves to prepare for college with the help of EXCEL, are able to attend and succeed.

This holiday season, we're investing in our country's future by making a donation to the EXCEL program.  We hope you'll join us.
