WESTON, FL , a division of American Scientific Resources
(PINKSHEETS: ASFX), and a leading provider of innovative health and
safety devices for children and adults, announces the launch of a
"Buy to Give" initiative to benefit Millennium Promise, a
non-for-profit organization dedicated to achieving the Millennium
Development Goals in Africa by 2015.
Every day, 26,000 children die from poverty related illnesses.
Each one has a name, a face, and a family that loves them.
Dr. Christopher F. Tirotta, CEO of American Scientific Resources
and founder of Kidz-Med Inc, said, "By teaming up with Millennium
Promise, we are able to make a significant difference in the life
of a child, or adult, who is suffering severely. Through this
initiative, a percentage of every product sold via Kidzmed.com will
be given directly to Millennium Promise to help save a life."
The mission of Millennium Promise is to achieve the Millennium
Development Goals -- eight globally endorsed objectives that
address the many aspects of extreme poverty -- in Africa by
2015.
"We are delighted to team up with Kidz-Med in this innovative
and creative initiative," said John McArthur Chief Executive
Officer and Executive Director of Millennium Promise. "Funds
generated from kidzmed.com will be used to help purchase mosquito
nets, anti-malaria medicines and other basic tools that will
improve the health and economic opportunities of rural communities
across Africa."
Available online via www.kidzmed.com, the Thermofocus� 5-in-1
takes a temperature in one second, without contact, which prevents
contamination. Billed by its Italian manufacturer the first at
distance, clinical thermometer in the world, Thermofocus� 5-in-1 is
recommended by doctors and pediatricians throughout the UK, Europe
and Asia and has even been used by medical personnel in Asia during
the SARS epidemic. (See BBC article:

Dr. Tirotta founded Kidz-Med Inc in 1993 to help children and
their families lead healthier, happier and safer lives. "Our new
'Buy to Give' initiative is a great way for shoppers to help save a
life," he said. "When they purchase products -- such as the
Thermofocus -- via www.kidzmed.com, at no extra cost to themselves
they can give a child a chance."
