Expert Stephanie Abrams 4th Quarter Yields Regal Cinemas Philanthropic
Honors, League of American Communications Professionals 2004 Best
Website Bronze Award and Hosts Fundraiser for Tucson’s Giving
Tree on Holland America’s Westerdam"
Boston, MA – December 2004
– “Travel WITH Stephanie Abrams!” heard weekly
coast-to-coast on the Business TalkRadio Network, focuses on a
higher purpose, according to its Travel Expert host. The fourth
quarter of 2004 saw the culmination of the year’s endeavors
to do more than entertain and inform the travel-targeted audience
of her weekly show, heard Sundays nationally in the 7pm to 9pm
EST time slot.
“My show provides the focus
for secondary goals that have primary value,” Abrams states.
“Through the cooperation of caring hoteliers, and companies
like Thrifty Car Rental, Woodfin Suites, and Holland America Line,
I have been able to create opportunities to benefit homeless children
rescued by The Giving Tree Outreach Program of Tucson, Arizona,
and charities such as The Will Rogers Fund and the Jimmy Fund
which are supported by Regal Cinemas Berkshire Mall Theatre in
Lanesborough, Massachusetts and their caring management team headed
by Tom Harragan, Ed Codding and Jeremy Gaskin who presented me
with a special award for my efforts.”
“It has been very exciting to work with
people within the travel industry whose hearts are as big as oceans
and whose willingness to support charitable opportunities that
clearly need attention has given special meaning to the value
of celebrity recognition. It’s all about what you have done
to make the world a better place, especially for children and
those who are in need,” Abrams explains. “My assistance
helps people where we have radio listeners.”
Holland America’s inaugural Caribbean sailing
of The Westerdam, December 5, 2004, was a fundraiser for Tucson’s
Giving Tree Outreach Program with Libby Wright, its Executive
Director, Stephanie Abrams, and listeners on board the ship. “It
was great getting to know my audience from across the country,”
Abrams said, “and knowing that while they were having a
great experience at sea they were also providing the promise of
a better life for homeless children rescued by the Giving Tree.”
Asked if she would do it again, Abrams responds,
“With Holland America’s gracious assistance, I am
endorsing a fund-raising cruise in Alaska for the summer of 2005
to benefit the Giving Tree! The need goes on and on and I’d
like to play a continuing part in helping to meet the challenges.
I am considering assisting other charities whose mission is to
help children and increase educational opportunities,” Abrams
explains, directing inquiries to her 2004 Bronze Award-Winning
Website, recognized for the third year by the League of American
Communications Professionals, at www.sabrams.com, for upcoming
program schedules, travel news, information on winning travel
prizes, and updates on the Alaska fundraising cruise. Other inquiries
can be emailed to Stephanie@sabrams.com.
Abrams’ weekly radio show continues to
grow and attain recognition for its innovative features such as
Caribbean Corner, Have Children. . . Will Travel, and The Traveling
Pet.
