Marathon Equipment Makes Donation to World Trade Center Victims

Marathon Equipment, along with its parent company, Dover Corporation, made a $1,000,000 donation to the relief efforts in New York City in the wake of the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center. It was with the victims' families in mind that Marathon and Dover made this charitable donation.

"Although it is not yet possible to advise the agencies to which these funds will be dispersed, I can assure you that we will put the funds where we are assured that the maximum amount goes to the families of the victims rather than to fund administration," says Tom Reece, Dover Corportion CEO.

Dover Corporation also has offices in New York City not far from the World Trade Center and has also been profoundly effected by the events of September 11th. On behalf of all Dover Company employees, we extend our deepest sympathies to those affected by these tragic events.
