Kevin McConville To Be Honored at "Walk of Hope"

July 15, 2009. Cold Spring, NY: The Hudson Valley House of Faith will host its third annual “Walk of Hope” on Saturday, July 18th, at Shepheard Memorial Park on Route 82, Fishkill, NY. The walk-a-thon festival offers fun for the whole family with food, music, and face painting. The main objective is to raise awareness of domestic abuse.

“We believe there is hope for every person at House of Faith Ministry,” says founder Minister Luader Smith. “All profits from the walk will go directly to the House of Faith Ministry to support the operation of the shelter and its various programs.”

Joining the cause will be honored guest Kevin McConville, former MTA Police Chief and a current candidate for Putnam County Sheriff. Other local participants include Marshall Mermell, a member of the House of Faith board of directors, and Marc Sabin, creator of the House of Faith website design.

Honored guest McConville was recently endorsed by the Putnam County Democratic Committee to run for Sheriff. A lifelong Hudson Valley resident, McConville finds the impact the House of Faith has had on the women of the Hudson Valley remarkable. “ I am honored to be a part of the great service the House of Faith offers to the women of the Hudson Valley. The issue of domestic abuse needs to be the attention of law enforcement with the key issue being to improve the quality of life for women in the area,” says McConville.

Located in Southern Dutchess County, NY, the House of Faith Ministry is a non-profit organization dedicated to serving the needs of Hudson Valley women who are victims of domestic abuse and violence. The House of Faith’s mission to end family violence has remained constant with their goal to eliminate sexual assault and domestic violence through sensitive prevention, intervention, and treatment.

Currently we are expanding our activities to better serve California.

We have expertise and experience in bringing innovative technologies to market and are expanding our operations to specialize in California businesses involved in green and sustainable technologies. Small to mid-sized companies ready to take their businesses to the next level can benefit from our capabilities and experience. We also have a division to work with start-up companies who are committed to the importance of marketing their business. 

Currently we are helping launch a game-changing electrical wiring and control system. Other sustainable companies we serve include firms with: a clean-burning used-oil heating system, energy efficient pools and spas, a new hydrogen technology that generates hydrogen on-site, and a mapping technology for civil engineering, land preservation and development.

Green technology firms have another strong reason to consider Marketing Works: we specialize in Risk-Managed Marketing™—an innovative strategy of sharing the risk of our client’s marketing budget expenditures.

In addition to using the traditional tools of marketing—ads, press releases, newsletters, brochures, and the like—we tap into the growing advantages of social networking by utilizing outlets such as Twitter, Facebook, and Blogspot. Fierce competition in today’s marketplace in the midst of a severe real-estate and financial sector-based recession has escalated into marketing warfare.

Our team is comprised of a talented group of individuals experienced in marketing, advertising, public relations, social networking, and business development. This range of knowledge and capabilities allows us to meld different sectors of marketing, applying the best of one to another—strengthening both. Our sweet spot is bringing service and product innovations to market while mitigating risk.
