FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
June 2, 2006

Heartland Communications Group, Inc. has teamed with the, “National Center for Missing and Exploited Children,” to help locate missing children.  Heartland Communications launched this campaign to help bring missing children home.  We know that one in six children is recovered as a direct result of someone recognizing that child’s photo and notifying authorities.

Last year alone, Heartland Communications mailed 8,774,601 publications to the various industries it serves: aviation, heavy construction equipment, industrial machines, agriculture, and outdoor recreation.  In it’s search for a way to “give back” to the communities it serves, the company will partner with their client base to publish photographs and information on missing children in all their magazines which will be distributed nationwide through their extensive database.  Funds generated from this affiliation will be forwarded to the national Center for Missing & Exploited Children to help in their search to locate missing children.

Plans are also underway to link all of Heartland’s websites to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children’s website ( www.missingkids.com ) to see additional faces of missing children.
