They rang in a spirit of community and recovery today.
As a testament to Viacom, Inc.'s Viacommunity Day on April 19 when employees rallied in Sea Bright to volunteer with Hurricane Sandy recovery, the company's President and CEO Philippe Dauman was joined by Mayor Dina Long and Chris Wood, founder of Sea Bright Rising, this morning at the NASDAQ market site in Manhattan's Times Square to ring the opening bell.
"Viacom/VH1/MTV has been a supporter of Sea Bright Rising from the beginning," said Wood in a Facebook post. "We’re very grateful to Viacom and their employees for supporting Sea Bright Rising."
Viacom, Wood added, brought roughly 35 volunteers to Sea Bright on April 19 Friday to clear it north beach walking path of debris. "Thank you !!!" he said. "Thank you Viacom for supporting us. Sea Bright will RISE !!!!!"
