You Don't Have to Be Rich to Make a Difference

WESLEY CHAPEL, Fla., March 7 /PRNewswire/ -- At one point or another many of us have had the feeling of being a small fish in a big pond -- like nothing we do will make a difference. Or maybe it's the feeling of not having enough hours in the day or being too busy to make the effort. Team members of Market Technologies and TradingEducation.com have exactly the opposite feelings.

Market Technologies, developer of VantagePoint Intermarket Analysis Software, and TradingEducation.com, a free educational website dedicated to helping traders, recently united to make several charitable contributions.

The first was to the Robby Killete 1st Annual Golf Tournament in Tampa, Florida, to raise funds for Robby's treatment for Cancer and to reduce the financial stain on his parents. The firms donated two copies of Market Technologies' VantagePoint flagship software program, valued at $7,800, for the event's raffle.

The firms also donated two cases of Girl Scout cookies, totaling 24 boxes, to the Cookies from Home program sponsored by Girl Scouts of West Central Florida in a partnership with Support Our Troops as part of a community service initiative. Each week more than 200 boxes are shipped to U.S. soldiers in Iraq, Afghanistan, Kuwait, Qatar and Kyrgyzstan.

"So many people in the world and in our own neighborhoods around us are in need," noted Louis Mendelsohn, a pioneer in applying personal computers to financial markets and President and Chief Executive Officer of Market Technologies. "Charitable organizations have really simplified the donation and participation process. There is no reason not to donate. Find the time to donate, whether financially or physically as a volunteer. You'll be happier for the effort."
