ANNOUNCES AMBASSADOR PROGRAM

CAST MEMBERS FROM HIT SHOWS LEND THEIR
SUPPORT TO THE REVOLUTIONARY WAY TO GO TO BROADWAY!

New York, NY – Givenik.com has launched Givenik Ambassadors, it was announced by Jordan Roth, President of Jujamcyn Theaters. The exciting new element of Givenik.com, featuring cast members of hit shows discussing the causes and charities they support in short video blogs, will kick off with Reeve Carney (Spider-Man) in support of Partnership for the Homeless, Joel Grey (Anything Goes, The Normal Heart) in support of Friends In Deed, and Rory O’Malley (The Book Of Mormon) in support of Broadway Impact.

Through the Givenik Ambassadors Program, fans will have the opportunity to pose questions to upcoming Ambassadors via Givenik’s Facebook and Twitter feeds. The Ambassadors will then answer a selection of questions in their video blogs. Content is available by visiting www.facebook.com/Givenik.

“I am constantly moved and inspired by how much everyone in our theatre community champions important causes by sharing time, money, talent and spirit,” commented Jordan Roth. “I hope Givenik Ambassadors can be a unique extension of that wonderful commitment.”

Givenik.com is redefining theatergoing, one ticket at a time. The revolutionary service offers discount, full-price & premium tickets to dozens of Broadway and Off-Broadway shows, as well as group rates to all shows, and donates 5% of the ticket price to the charity of the ticket-buyer’s choice. Give money, save money, see a show—it’s a win-win-win situation.
