The
Karma Foundation,
an exclusive social membership organization that combines
the benefits of executive networking and philanthropy with
luxury lifestyle events, has added Generation Rescue to its
growing list of charity and non-profit beneficiaries.
The Karma Foundation has already donated over $25,000 to
Generation Rescue through proceeds from its annual Kandyland
event. It will now become a Corporate Sponsor and
participate in the charity's
grant program.
To date Karma and its members have sponsored ten families,
providing their children medical assistance and services
which would otherwise be unaffordable for recovery of autism
spectrum disorders. Karma will continue to sponsor
additional families whose children need this assistance
through future event proceeds and member donations.
Marvin Epstein, Karma Foundation's
executive vice president of Business Development and
Philanthropy, said:
"Karma
prides itself on long-term relationships with the charities
it supports, our
'philanthropy
legacy'
strategy. We will work with Generation Rescue to ensure our
donations are contributing in the most effective way
possible. We believe our strategy will create a genuine and
critical component to ensure the success of these
organizations."
Candace McDonald, executive director of Generation Rescue
said: "We
are grateful to the Karma Foundation and its members for
making a commitment to support our grant program and provide
treatment for families affected by autism. We appreciate the
generous donations they have made, and also the lasting
partnership we have begun to build together. Their ongoing
unique support strategy establishes an exciting initiative
to help more families and create further awareness and
growth for Generation Rescue."
Generation Rescue, led by president, Jenny McCarthy, is
dedicated to the recovery of children and adults with autism
spectrum disorders through medical treatments, support and
guidance. Of the recent sponsorship and partnership, Jenny
McCarthy said:
"It's
so great to find a sponsor like the Karma Foundation, where
its members truly care about the people served by the
nonprofits they support.
