Kingston shows its support for the SISTER2sister Program
A Life Changing Experience Foundation program
Sydney, Australia: January 6, 2010 — Kingston Technology Company, Inc., the world leader in memory products supported the Life Changing Experience Foundation’s “SISTER2sister” Program. During the 2009 graduation ceremony in November, Kingston provided a custom USB Flash drive as a special gift to each of the “little sister” graduates, “big sister” mentor volunteers, and the staff and team leaders from the foundation. With the logo of the Life Changing Experiences foundation etched on the drive, the Kingston USB Flash drive can not only hold precious memory and photographs, but will also serve as a reminder of their year long experience on the program.
“We are very happy and thankful for Kingston’s generosity and its support to this program and all the participants would be thrilled by receiving the memorable keepsake,” said Jessica Brown, CEO and the founder of Life Changing Experiences Foundation.
“This mentoring program is a meaningful experience that will have a huge impact in the lives of many teenage girls and we admire the spirits that all these members have shown during the process of goal-achieving. It is a program that Kingston values and we are very delighted to support such a program.” said Vaughan Nankivell, Regional Manager- Australia and New Zealand for Kingston Technology.
The SISTER2sister program initiated by Life Changing Experiences Foundation provides young teenage girls who are at risk of abuse and/or neglect with a professional positive female model to inspire and help motivate them throughout the year. The program strives to help young girls realise their full potential and give them the opportunity to become confident young women. In 2009, this was achieved by different activities each month such as learning to surf, cooking, climbing the Sydney Harbour Bridge, combined with talks given by resource speakers on relevant teenage issues.
