HILLSBOROUGH, N.C., Feb. 1 /PRNewswire/ -- Adam & Eve (adameve.com), America's #1 source for all things erotic, is pleased to announce it contributed over $100,000 in charitable efforts in 2007.
Long known as a local philanthropist, Adam & Eve has routinely upped its contributions each year.
"Adam & Eve has just ended another record-breaking year in sales," says Chad Davis, Marketing Director for the company. "We've always been great community neighbors, giving to local education and community services. And our philosophy is basically, the more we receive... the more we give back."
From condom donations to local food drives to building a house with Habitat for Humanity, Adam & Eve expanded its efforts this year with contributions to over 75 different organizations -- both locally and nationally.
"Adameve.com, the company's retail website, raised a significant amount of money for breast cancer awareness and research in October (National Breast Cancer Awareness Month)," says Davis. "People might be surprised to know we donate a considerable amount of money to the American Heart Association and Relay for Life, as well as industry-related organizations such as the National Coalition Against Censorship."
In addition to money, employees also donated time in 2007. A large number of Adam & Eve's 350 employees spent time building the Habitat house, collecting food for local residents for Thanksgiving and providing gifts for needy children for Christmas.
"Our employees are the ones who tell us where they want the money to go," says Davis. "They have always jumped in during times of need to help with whatever they can. Adam & Eve has a history of matching donations made by employees... and the $100,000 we contributed does not include individual employees' monetary efforts. At the end of the day, it really shows that we care."
