Attend Wednesday Keynote at GovSec to Help One Fund

Are you heading to GovSec 2014 this week? If so, I would like to urge you to find time in your busy schedule to attend the Wednesday morning keynote about the Boston Marathon bombing response. Not only will this morning be spent learning valuable information, but Axis Communications has a bonus for you.

With its regional North American headquarters just outside of Boston, Axis Communications is dedicated to supporting the Boston Police Department, Fire Department, First Responders and the FBI as well as all those who support their vision for a safer, smarter, more secure world.

Attend Wednesday Keynote at GovSec to Help One FundIn a bold effort to show their support, Axis will donate $1 to the One Fund Boston, a non-profit organization formed by Governor Deval Patrick and Mayor Thomas M. Menino on April 16, 2013, with the purpose of helping those most affected by the tragic Boston Marathon bombings, for EVERY person attending the Wednesday morning keynote at GovSec.

So, what’s the big deal about One Fund? Head on over to www.onefundboston.org (with some tissue because there are some tear-jerkers) and just see how this organization is helping those impacted by the Boston Marathon bombings.

You say you can’t attend the Wednesday keynote? Well, why not swing by the Axis booth (#2207) and make a donation. Just as this is a great initiative and a way for Axis, a Boston-based company to give back to their city, this is a great way for you to show your support as well.
