FARMINGDALE, NY, February 10, 2011
/24-7PressRelease/ -- Since its start 25 years ago, MaxiAids Products for Independent Living has been dedicated to helping the blind, low vision, deaf, hard of hearing and those with other challenges. As an industry leader, MaxiAids is now expanding on its long tradition of giving by sponsoring web-a-thons in support of special needs organizations.
"Our objective has always been to give those with special needs a store they can call their own... a store offering tremendous savings, selection and service," explains Elliot Zaretsky, president and founder of MaxiAids.
"Before we began in the industry, selection was limited and prices were out of reach to many of those who needed the products. As we celebrate our 25th anniversary, I'm proud to say we have been, and will continue to be, the price and selection leader in order to make special needs items available and affordable to all."
Within the MaxiAids corporate culture is a deep commitment to lend support to organizations that serve those in the special needs communities.
"Throughout the year, we handle hundreds of requests for donations and giveaways," says Mr. Zaretsky, "and we also sponsor many web-a-thons."
The web-a-thons provide charities a two-fold benefit. First, MaxiAids gives them a portion of proceeds from all web orders received during the 24-hour web-a-thon. Second, they gain publicity and increased awareness for their charity from MaxiAids online banners and promotional efforts.
Over the past years, MaxiAids has sponsored hundreds of events and web-a-thons for many charities, including Miami Lighthouse for the Blind, New York Deaf-Blind Collaborative, Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation and Helen Keller Services for the Blind, to name just a few.
And they don't plan to stop anytime soon. "The way I see it, we're all in this together," concludes Mr. Zaretsky. "And MaxiAids will continue to do whatever we can to support the charities that share our mission of serving those with special needs."
MaxiAids, now celebrating its 25th anniversary, is a world-leading provider of products for independent living, supplying an extensive range of aids and devices to improve the lives of the Blind, Low Vision, Deaf, Hard of Hearing, Diabetic and those with mobility and other special needs. MaxiAids is the exclusive distributor of the Marks Script Guide writing aid for the Visually Impaired and Reizen products for special needs.
