Derive is proud to have once again participated in the NY Metro Area Microsoft/IAMCP/US Marine Corps "Toys for Tots" campaign. Derive is a Microsoft® Gold Certified Partner and a long-time supporter of the annual Microsoft and IAMCP-organized drive.

Derive learned that the 2009 campaign raised more than $12,000 with matching (this is an unofficial total with receipts still being counted from the region). John Wood, Derive's Vice President of Marketing, says that "we just found out about the total raised to-date and we're thrilled to have contributed to making the event a success!" Mr. Wood continues: "Derive takes this specific, annual drive very personally. Providing toys, clothing and other resources to families and children in need is very close to the hearts of all members of our team. It is especially important to us every year to support the New York Metro Microsoft/IAMCP Toys for Tots initiative so that we can join other local Microsoft Partners as a unified community to fulfill needs of families in our area."
