The Branding Company Launches ‘Promotions for Prevention' to Support Positive Youth Development
June 11, 2008
The Branding Company is a family-run business that believes philanthropic support is a key component of healthy and viable communities. That is why the company has established "Promotions for Prevention," a corporate giving program in partnership with the Rushford Foundation. The Rushford Foundation is the fund-raising entity for Rushford Center Inc., a not-for-profit behavioral healthcare organization that provides prevention, treatment and recovery services to more than 12,000 Connecticut residents each year.Under the "Promotions for Prevention" program, the Rushford Foundation will receive a portion of revenue from The Branding Company's new sales. The company, which recently opened a new showroom located at 342 Quinnipiac Street in Wallingford, specializes in providing diverse promotional products to businesses and organizations in Connecticut including unique corporate gifts and awards and customized apparel. All of the proceeds generated from the program will be used to expand and enhance prevention services for youth, said Amy Hickey, Director of Business Development and Community Relations. "Rushford provides critical prevention programs in many of the communities our business serves," said President Patrick Muli. "These programs are helping youth making healthy life choices, including the decision not to use drugs and alcohol."
Research has shown that for every $1 communities spend on prevention, they save between $4 and $5 in treatment costs. Rushford has been recognized nationally for its innovative approach to early intervention and prevention programs. The organization currently provides in-school, after-school and summer prevention programs in Meriden, Wallingford, Middletown, Glastonbury and Westbrook that are focused on positive youth development.
"We are very grateful for The Branding Company's support of our mission," said Rushford President and CEO Jeff Walter. "Prevention programs are the cornerstone of healthy communities and it is the generosity of individuals and businesses that help us continue to enhance and expand the services we provide to children, adolescents and families."
