Foundation 9 Entertainment announced today that it is spending nearly $10,000 to support victims of Hurricane Katrina. This equals the amount that Foundation 9's employees have given in wake of the disaster. The company will also be supporting the Teen Adventure Challenge in LA this November.

"Our company was founded on the belief that sharing resources is the best way to accomplish something bigger together than we can do alone. This thinking applies to communities as well as our own business," said Mark Loughridge, founding partner and co-chairman of Foundation 9 Entertainment. "Helping those in need is a responsibility we all share, and we want to add our contributions to those of our fantastic employees and so many other citizens to make a difference to victims of Hurricane Katrina."

"The gaming industry is often criticized for not being a positive influence on our kids," adds Loughridge. "Supporting events like this, in addition to our active educational software development, demonstrates Foundation 9's commitment to helping young people learn the skills necessary to live happy and successful lives."
