CDC of Long Island Connects Community to Hurricane Relief Resources

4 Nov

Centereach, NY (PRWEB) November 04, 2012

Long Island residents impacted by Hurricane Sandy can access important regional, statewide and national web links and hurricane relief information by visiting the Community Development Corporation of Long Island (CDC) website http://www.cdcli.org. This information can also be accessed by smart phone by connecting to CDC via Facebook and Twitter. CDC offers several programs that may be able to assist residents, including its Emergency Home Loan Repair Program.

“CDC is available to assist income-eligible Long Islanders with emergency home repair loans,” said Eileen Anderson, CDC Senior Vice President. “There is a lot of misinformation out there right now. This issue, coupled with the trauma people are experiencing in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy, can result in poor decision making. Individuals and homeowners need to be aware and make sure they are working with a trusted advisor when they are seeking financial assistance.”

Additionally, the CDC website includes links to suggested information and will be updated regularly:

  •     A disaster relief questionnaire and status of application for assistance to determine if you are eligible for help;
  •     Public education regarding insurance and claims;
  •     U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development hurricane recovery assistance;
  •     Updates from New York State Governor Cuomo and outage maps; and
  •     Small business financial assistance.

Social Media Exchange Site Open for Use by Personalities as Olympics Heat Continues to Surge

8 Aug

Ottawa, ON (PRWEB) August 08, 2012

With Tweets and Facebook updates on the Olympics coming in left and right, and netizens flocking to follow or like the online hubs of their favorite athletes, staffers at Keeko says the social media exchange site is not just for businesses and social marketing; it’s good for athletes and other personalities too.

When one signs up for an account with Keeko, the site works by featuring the user’s account directly to its thousands of other users, making it easier for them to get Twitter followers or Facebook likes.

“Keeko is not limited to online businesses and marketing ventures,” says Diana Quartin, Creative Director of Clicking Labs. “Personalities looking to expand their network online can benefit from Keeko too, in that Keeko works non-stop in garnering more followers and likes for them, and driving traffic to their online spots even as the users are offline.”

She adds: “A wider audience for personalities means a wider reach for their message, updates, announcements, causes they have taken up, or in the case of the Olympics, announcement of their Olympic game schedules.”

Keeko provides a venue for users to earn free Facebook likes, Twitter followers, LinkedIn connections, and Google +1s by creating a community within Keeko, thereby making it an online gallery of pages and accounts that people can choose to follow in categories that are suited to personal interests.

Staffers add that the same advantages can be beneficial for musicians, politicians, newsmakers, and cause-oriented groups. Especially for up-and-coming personalities, Keeko says that a constantly rising number of followers and likes helps to spark that needed buzz.

Those interested can start expanding their network by logging on to http://www.keeko.com. To sign up, they will simply need an email address and a password; after which users can then begin to earn points.

More information and updates can also be found on their Twitter page.

About Keeko

Keeko is a wholly owned company by Clicking Labs. With dedication and perseverance they were able to bring together a diverse team of web professionals to provide internet businesses with creative web marketing strategies. Founded in Ottawa, Canada, the company has expanded operations to Cebu, Philippines in early 2011 to better serve its clients.
