Certifikid and Casey Cares Foundation Announce Partnership

Baltimore, MD, July 12, 2011 --(PR.com)-- The first Baltimore area deal website for families and the Casey Cares Foundation, a non-profit charity that provides uplifting programs with a special touch for critically ill children and their families have announced that they have joined forces and formed a partnership. As part of their collaboration, Certifikid will be offering Casey Cares families the activities that they promote daily, and initiating relationships between their supporters and the Foundation. These opportunities will be part of the charity’s Family Festivities program.

Certifikid offers its members via email a daily, unbeatable deal on all things families want and need in the greater Baltimore area. Since its launch in May 2010, Certifikid has featured exclusive deals at incredible savings from local businesses such as Urban Pirates, Pump It Up, Baltimore Magazine and The Little Gym, as well as independent specialty photographers, restaurants, and children’s activities.

“We are thrilled to partner with the Casey Cares Foundation,” says Certifikid’s CEO and Founder Jamie Ratner. “Supporting local families is our passion. Yet we know that, for a child with a life-threatening illness and that child’s family, support of a different and more important kind is required. As part of our new partnership, we will work with Casey Cares to offer programs and experiences to these local families who are in need of hope and joy in their everyday lives.”

The following Certifikid businesses have followed Certifikid’s lead and made donations to Casey Cares programs: Games2U, Sarah Kaupp Photography, The Great Zuchinni, Fit Mom Baltimore, Charm City Karate, Dipped and Delicious!, Green Meadows Farm, Preschool Palettes, Child's Play Music LLC, Math Tree, Shoezooz, Mamaslink, Baroody Camps, and Kids Time Out.

The Casey Cares Foundation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit that provides personalized, uplifting programs with a special touch to critically ill children and family members throughout six states. Programs include: Family Festivities, Celebration Vacations, Birthday Blasts, Kami’s Jammies, Caring Connection group parties and Better Together.
