TD Bank and TD AMERITRADE Join Forces in Support of Special Olympics

TD Bank, America's Most Convenient Bank® and TD AMERITRADE today announced a joint effort to support Special Olympics and the 2010 Special Olympics USA National Games scheduled for July 18-23 in Lincoln, NE. TD AMERITRADE has donated to each of the Nebraska, Texas, Utah, New Jersey, Maryland, Illinois, Southern California and Florida Special Olympics Programs.

In addition, June 1-July 31 marks the launch of the annual 2010 "Be a FAN!” campaign, which encourages customers and employees to support Special Olympics Programs at their local stores. This year, for the first time, TD AMERITRADE will also partake in the initiative, hoping to bolster donations through an employee giving program.

"We are delighted to be working together with our partners at TD Bank to support such a worthy cause,” said John Bunch, President, Retail Distribution, TD AMERITRADE. "Special Olympics’ commitment to help individuals succeed is absolutely consistent with our values, and we are proud to be a sponsor.”

"We're incredibly proud to unite under the TD Shield to support such a great cause," said Fred Graziano, Head of Retail Banking for TD Bank. "We encourage our customers, employees and the community to contribute to this wonderful organization, and we believe this combined effort will have a positive impact for the athletes and their families across our local communities."

"Associates at both TD AMERITRADE and TD Bank have not only been generous with their financial support, but have also pledged more than 10,000 hours of volunteer time at numerous Special Olympics events across the country,” said Bob Gobrecht, Managing Director for Special Olympics North America. "Together, by joining forces for the 2010 ‘Be a FAN!’ campaign, we will have an even greater impact on the lives of people with intellectual disabilities—raising awareness and increasing overall support for Special Olympics both at the local and national levels.”
