Low-cost, premier Internet Service Provider (ISP) OWC.net , headquartered in Woodstock, IL., continues in its corporate tradition of community support with a Fourth of July fundraiser for McHenry County rehabilitation services provider Adult & Child Rehab Center.
OWC.net parent company Other World Computing will donate the use of its auxiliary building parking lot on the night of July 4 to offer people attending Woodstock's fireworks celebration a chance for premier parking directly next to the event site in Emricson Park. Donations of $5 per car will go directly to Adult & Child Rehab. OWC.net also is the sponsor of the fireworks display this year.
"We are always happy to support organizations like Adult & Child Rehab that provide much needed services to people from all walks of life," said Other World Computing Logistics Manager Larry O'Connor, Sr. "The folks at Adult & Child Rehab Center are committed to the community, and we can appreciate that, as OWC.net is committed to providing the top economical Internet choice for Woodstock and McHenry County."
OWC.net provides high quality, cost-efficient Internet service on a national basis, and is considered the premier Internet provider for Woodstock and McHenry County residents and businesses by offering unmatched family-friendly SPAM blocking and national service standards at special hometown discounts for local residents.
Volunteers will collect donations at the Other World Computing lot, located at 665 W. Jackson, on the Fourth of July starting at 7 p.m. and continuing until the lots fills. All proceeds will go directly to Adult & Child Rehab, a non-profit agency that provides physical rehabilitative services to adults and children in McHenry County regardless of ability to pay.
Coinciding with the July 4 celebration, OWC.net is offering a special discount for new Woodstock-based subscribers. Standard prices starting at $6 a month are less than half of other national Internet providers.
