"As a company whose mission is building families and communities, we are proud to partner with Tuesday's Children," says Greg Liberman, President and Chief Executive Officer of Spark Networks. "For us and the millions of members of our communities, the holidays are all about giving and we are honored to be able to make this impactful gift to help support Tuesday's Children and, specifically, its First Responder Alliance Program."
The contribution is of the result of a 9/11 giving-back initiative Spark Networks ran on two of its premier websites, JDate and ChristianMingle, through which Spark donated a percentage of all new subscriptions purchased on September 11, 2011, to Tuesday's Children.
Terry Sears, Executive Director of Tuesday's Children, said, "Spark Networks' generosity will have a tremendous impact on the programs and services that we deliver for the families and children so terribly impacted by the events of September 11th and in particular for the brave and heroic 9/11 responders. Tuesday's Children is thrilled to be supported by Spark Networks."
Spark Networks' mission is to help people make connections and foster meaningful relationships through its portfolio of online communities. The company's emphasis on family building and community aligns with Tuesday's Children's objective to strengthen families affected by terrorism, giving this donation great significance to Spark Networks.
