Like many companies, clothing manufacturer Vertx has a Facebook page, but they are doing something fantastic with theirs. Below is an excerpt from their fan page explaining just what they are up to.
On March 18th Navy SEAL Adam Brown died from injuries sustained during combat operations in Afghanistan while selflessly protecting the rest of his Team’s lives. Some of us here at Vertx had the honor of knowing and working with Adam, a couple had the privilege to call him friend. Adam is survived by his wife as well as a daughter and son, not to mention countless friends, loving family and teammates.
Adam was the epitome of the Operational Athlete you have seen described here. For every new Facebook fan we receive by April 30th up to 10,000, Vertx will donate one dollar to the Adam Brown Memorial Fund. Please use the “Suggest to Friends” link below the Vertx logo to participate. Thank you.
They had planned only to donate $2,400 but they hit 10,000 in a few days. So Vertx is planning to extend their promotion for another 2,000 new fans. If you are a member of Facebook, show your support for this cause and become a fan.
