West Palm Beach, FL - eDimensional, leading manufacturer and distributor of innovative PC and video gaming accessories has partnered with Kids Wish Network in spreading cheer to thousands of children across the country afflicted with life-threatening illnesses. In the aftermath of Hurricanes Katrina, Rita and Wilma, donations to many charities sharply declined. When Kids Wish Network announced they had a critical shortage of donations, eDimensional answered the call by pledging over $10,000 in PC games and entertaining 3D movies, including viewing glasses.
Kids Wish Network is a nationally recognized charity dedicated to infusing hope, creating happy memories and improving the quality of life for children. Through its Holiday of HopeTM gift-giving program, the charity brings hospitalized children a much-needed break from medical treatment, providing gifts, entertainment and special guests. During these events, Kids Wish Network staff and volunteers distribute age-appropriate gift bags full of toys and other treasures to the young patients and their often forgotten siblings. In addition, Kids Wish Network grants wishes to children suffering with life threatening illnesses, providing each wish child a "pre-wish" box of toys and gifts especially tailored to their personality.
"eDimensional is thrilled to be a part of the Holiday of HopeTM program, bringing smiles to such deserving children", says eDimensional CEO Michael Epstein. "eDimensional is committed to giving back to the community and is delighted to have the opportunity to draw attention to such a worthy organization within our industry."
Barbara Askin, Director of Kids Wish Network, states "It's heroes like eDimensional that make it possible for us to do the work we do. Their willingness to so quickly answer our appeals for help ensures that thousands of children will not have to wait to have the anxieties of their hospital experiences eased by a gift and a smile."
