EL SEGUNDO,
Calif., June 29, 2006 — 365 Main Inc.,
developer and operator of the world’s finest data
centers, celebrated the community at yesterday’s
grand opening of the company’s El Segundo data
center with the awarding of the 365 Main ACE Award.
The ACE award celebrates achievement, commitment and
excellence in individuals and charities in communities
in which 365 Main operates.
365 Main recognized Special Olympics, Southern California
(SOSC), an organization that provides year-round sports
training and athletic competition in a variety of Olympic-type
sports for children and adults with intellectual disabilities
[mental retardation], giving them continuing opportunities
to develop physical fitness, demonstrate courage, experience
joy and participate in a sharing of gifts, skills and
friendship with their families, and other Special Olympics
athletes and the community. SOSC will serve 10,000 families
and athletes in 2006, and has set a goal to double that
number by 2007.
The recipient was Dustin Plunkett, who started his
relationship with Special Olympics as an active athlete,
evolving to both coach and mentor for the organization.
He now serves as global messenger for SOSC and also
represents athletes on the SOSC board of trustees.
“When we were approached by 365 Main, we knew
immediately that Dustin personified the spirit of what
365 Main is doing with their ACE Award,” said
Mike Delzotti, vice president of marketing and development
at SOSC. “We are honored and excited by the support
365 Main has given us.”
“The ACE Award is a core part of our community
relations program,” said Miles Kelly, vice president
of marketing and strategy for 365 Main. “By rewarding
individuals and charities that share 365 Main's passion
for service 24/7/365, we improve the communities in
which we do business.”
365 Main made a financial contribution to SOSC on behalf
of Plunkett and is working with a cross section of charities
in Phoenix, Ariz and northern Virginia, where 365 Main
has recently opened new data centers.
