Protect Those Who Protect Us: OtterBox Donates to Charities for Holidays

In an effort to protect those who protect us, this holiday season OtterBox® will donate 5 percent of every web purchase from Nov. 29 to Dec. 13, 2011 to a service charity on behalf of online customers.

With a purchase from www.otterbox.com, shoppers will receive a total discount of 15 percent, 5 percent of which will be donated to their choice of one of the service-oriented charities detailed below. Customers will receive an email confirmation that the donation has been made in their name or, if the purchase is a gift, the customer can opt to have the donation made in the recipient’s name.

“We’re truly grateful for the sacrifices that service men and women make for us every day,” OtterBox Founder and CEO Curt Richardson said. “Our customers can enjoy premium protection for their mobile technology and know that they’re supporting a great cause.”

Homes for Heroes: The Homes for Heroes Foundation protects those who protect us by providing financial assistance and housing resources to military personnel, police/peace officers, firefighters and first responders. With help from this organization, these heroes and their families don’t have to bear physical and emotional burdens alone.

Wounded Warrior Project: Started after the tragedy of September 11, 2001, Wounded Warrior Project works to extend a hand to those returning from combat and adjusting to life at home. With a variety of services and programs, they help to heal the physical and invisible wounds of war.

UNICEF: Working in over 150 countries across the world, UNICEF is committed to finding the best and most cost-effective ways to save children's lives. They provide health care, nutrition and education to help every child realize their full potential and have a chance at life. Thanks to their protection, millions of children have been able to survive and lead healthier and happier lives.

"There are no words to express our gratitude to OtterBox for selecting our foundation as one of the recipients for donations from their holiday sales,” Homes for Heroes Vice President Helen Johnson said. “We are proud to be associated with such a well-respected quality brand! Thank you for your generosity and desire to assist us in giving back to those who protect our communities and our country.”
