NEW YORK (September 29, 2009) – Cirtex
Corp. announced today it will join the fight against cancer by donating
a portion of its sales in October from its two hosting brands, CirtexHosting
and HostV, to the Jimmy Fund. The Jimmy Fund
supports cancer research and care at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute.
“In one way or another, cancer affects us all. At Cirtex Corp, we’ve
seen the effects of cancer up and close, and it’s our moral obligation
to stand up and do our part to help advance the important research that offers
the hope of better treatment and higher survival rates,” said Cirtex Corp.
President John Xie. “My hope is that we can encourage more individuals
and businesses to join our efforts and begin to support causes like this. Sometimes
we don’t realize how important medical research is until it’s too
late.”
Each year, the Jimmy Fund hosts the Jimmy Fund Walk as part of the Boston Marathon.
This year’s walk was held several weeks ago and nearly 800 walkers raised
more than $325,000. Cirtex Corp. is making its October donation to the 2009
Jimmy Fund Walk in the name of the walkers in this year’s event.
Cirtex Corp. has supported a variety of charitable initiatives in the past,
including the recovery efforts in the wake of the 2008 earthquake in China’s
Sichuan province. The company also perpetually supports non-profit open source
software development initiatives and conferences, including the WordCamp series
for WordPress, as well as programs for Drupal, ClipBucket and PHPMotion.
