DARIEN, Conn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 25, 2006--The nation's local police, firefighters and emergency medical technicians now have an important new asset on their belt ... the mobile phone. ICE First, a software application that allows users to store and retrieve their medical, insurance and emergency contact information on mobile devices, is now being offered free to active first responders around the country.
'ICE First was developed with the help of first responders. They know the importance of having emergency medical and contact information readily available,' said Keith Buckley, president and CEO of Juke Systems Inc., the company that created ICE First. 'Now that ICE First is commercially available, we've decided to offer it free to first responders so they can help spread the word and encourage others to carry this potentially life-saving information on mobile phones.'"

dBusinessNews :: Daily Business News Delivered to Your Desktop: "Kansas City -
In an effort to grow philanthropy in Kansas City, the Greater Kansas City Community Foundation today unveiled a series of new tools designed to make its community of donors and DonorEdge® nonprofits, more powerful, effective, and accessible.
Beginning today, individuals — whether or not they have a fund at the Community Foundation — will be able to contribute directly to the nonprofits they support through credit card donations. This effort, part of a focus on 'public philanthropy,' should make it significantly easier for individuals to use the wealth of information available from DonorEdge® — detailed data on more than 600 area nonprofits — to gain the insight and intelligence they need to make the biggest impact with their charitable giving. Nonprofits also can link directly from their own Web sites to their DonorEdge® profile to enable interested donors to more easily research the organization and make donations online."
