New Colleagues & Companions Program Allows Customers to Donate Constant Contact® to their Favorite Charities
WALTHAM, MA – September 17, 2002: Roving Software, the leading provider of self-service email marketing tools and services, today announced the launch of its Colleagues & Companions Program to benefit non-profits.
The new program enables customers and affiliates to donate free Constant Contact accounts to their favorite non-profits including charitable organizations, associations, church or religious groups, schools and local civic organizations. Roving will donate a 12-month Constant Contact account (for up to 10,000 email addresses) to any charity or non-profit where five “Colleagues & Companions” (e.g. members, volunteers, friends) are Constant Contact customers.
Constant Contact is a Do-It-Yourself Email Marketing™ service designed for small and mid-sized businesses/organizations. Constant Contact enables businesses to keep in touch with their own customers and prospects, drive repeat sales and strengthen relationships with cost-effective, permission-based email marketing.
“We can all do well by doing good,” said Diane Darling, founder and director of Effective Networking Inc. “Many small businesses and entrepreneurs donate the gift of their time to charity. Now, with Constant Contact’s Colleagues & Companions program, we are able to easily donate even more to the causes we are passionate about.”
“We are pleased to accept this generous donation and very excited to begin using Constant Contact,” said Roberta Hurtig, Executive Director, The Samaritans of Boston. For non-profit organizations every penny counts. Constant Contact will not only help us save money and time on postage and printing, but also communicate more effectively with our board, volunteers, donors and potential donors who are the lifeblood of our organization. This donation will be very valuable to our cause.”
“We are very pleased to launch this unique program for donating Constant Contact to non-profits and charitable organizations,” said Gail Goodman, CEO, Roving Software. “Our customers expressed the desire to donate Constant Contact to the non-profits and charities they are associated with, so we created Colleagues & Companions to facilitate that donation. Email marketing is a great way for non-profits to communicate with their members, donors and volunteers.”
