Turner Broadcasting
Turner Broadcasting System, Inc. (www.turner.com), a Time Warner company, creates and programs branded news, entertainment, animation and young adult media environments on television and other platforms for consumers around the world.
Turner Broadcasting's sponsorship of the Tap Project Volunteer Program will support the recruitment of Tap Project coordinators in five key markets around the nation who will lead on-the-ground efforts for Tap in their local communities. The funds will also go towards the creation of a volunteer toolkit, featuring tools to encourage the participation of restaurants and to enable volunteers to garner local media coverage. The monies will also support local training events in these key markets and cover the redesign and re-launch of a dedicated Tap Project website that will provide practical, user-friendly resources for volunteers.
In addition, Cartoon Network, a division of Turner Broadcasting, sponsored the Youth Involvement Guide, a guide for parents, educators and adults to share with youth. Cartoon Network's Get Animated program empowers children to get active, get healthy and get involved to make a positive difference in their lives and in other children's lives in their community and around the world.
