"Rosco is proud to play a part in the important work that Behind the Scenes does within the entertainment technology industry," said Mark Engel, Rosco CEO. "The grants that Behind the Scenes provide can be profoundly helpful to entertainment professionals and their families, and it is our privilege to contribute to the cause. Our contribution this year is $4,500, bringing our total contribution to $21,000. These funds represent the proceeds from Roscolux 359 Medium Violet. We're grateful to Behind the Scenes for the opportunity to improve the lives of our industry colleagues."
Rick Rudolph, chair of the Behind the Scenes Foundation, accepted the cheque, saying, "Ten years ago, Behind the Scenes made its first grant. We knew the programme would eventually earn the respect of our industry. When Rosco stepped up and became our first corporate partner, our hope of recognition was realized through Rosco's commitment to the charity. We are thrilled to report that with the industry's support, we have now granted almost $700,000."
The Behind the Scenes charity provides entertainment technology industry professionals who are ill or injured with grants that may be used for basic living and medical expenses. For more information about Behind the Scenes, to donate, or to apply for a grant, visit www.behindthescenescharity.org
