tel(x) Teams Up to Support Veroxity's Annual Charity Golf Tournament

NEW YORK, Aug. 14 /PRNewswire/ -- For the second consecutive year tel(x), the owner and operator of two of North America's premier interconnection facilities, is pleased to announce its support and participation in Veroxity's Annual Charity Golf Tournament.

All proceeds from the event will benefit TUFTS New England Medical Center - The Hospital for Children & Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. The funds will go towards purchasing specialized equipment, medical supplies and facility improvement to care for critically ill newborns.

"Last year we raised just over $20k," states Mike Papell Director of Corporate Development for Veroxity. "With the help of others in the community like tel(x), we hope to increase awareness and ultimately bring even greater proceeds to the hospital and help those in need."

"While the ones who benefit from this event are small, the cause is certainly large," states John Bonczek, VP of Sales for tel(x). "We are proud and honored to be a part of such a worthy contribution."
