IBDI News iBill Supports Boys and Girls Clubs & Madison Avenue for Kids
DEERFIELD BEACH, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 7, 2005--Internet Billing Company, LLC. ("iBill") has announced its support of the Boys and Girls Clubs of Broward County and Madison Avenue for Kids, a foundation started by All Pro Sam Madison, of the Miami Dolphins. iBill's support of these charities comes through financial sponsorship of this year's Signature Grand Ghoul, a Halloween costume party, taking place on Monday, October 24, at the Signature Grand in Davie, Florida.
"I have always felt that we had an obligation to give back to the community, and what better way than through the kids," said iBill's president, Gary Spaniak. This is iBill's second year as a sponsor of this event. Its parent company, Interactive Brand Development, Inc. (IBDI), has contributed for the past three years, through its ownership of iBidUSA.com.
IBDI's CEO, Steve Markley stated that, "The Boys and Girls Clubs of Broward County have been doing great work for years. Along with Sam's foundation, we can't think of a better way to make a strong impact on the children of our community." In the past, it has been IBD's influence that has sparked participation by many of today's current sponsors, including 1400-WFLL, ESPN Radio, and Southwest Airlines.
