Cash management solutions provider Intercard has teamed up with GameTime family entertainment centres in Florida, US to support the victims of a terrorist attack at the Pulse nightclub in Orlando.
The partnership works by facilitating donations through game card purchases. GameTime guests have the option of making a donation when purchasing their game card, with 100 per cent of these guest-driven donations going directly to the OneOrlando Fund. The OneOrlando Fund is a project of Strengthen Orlando, a nonprofit corporation, which is ensuring that funds are distributed to victims’ families and survivors in an open and transparent manner. Intercard donated 66,000 account numbers for game cards.
Mike Abecassis, CEO of GameTime, said: “We expect to get $1 to $2 per game card, which will enable us to donate at least $66,000 to support the victim's families and survivors of the Pulse tragedy.”
“We’re honoured that Mike and his team approached us with the idea and the opportunity to support the cause,” said Scott Sherrod, CEO of Intercard. “Mike runs a great organisation, and he clearly cares about his community.”
