Tags Favored by Hollywood Trendsetters Now Available on Official Website
SHORT HILLS, N.J., June 26 /PRNewswire/ — The Christopher Reeve Foundation (CRF) today announced the launch of www.SupermanTag.org, the official website of the year’s hottest philanthropy-based jewelry, the Superman Tag. These dog tags engraved with the official Superman S-Shield bear the Foundation’s tagline, “Go Forward” — words that reflect Christopher’s belief that to overcome any adversity in your life, no matter how challenging, you need to Go Forward each day with strength, determination and courage.
The Tags, whose celebrity fans include Wilmer Valderrama, Hilary Duff and Jesse McCartney, have raised more than $800,000 since their introduction last summer. All proceeds from the sale of the Tags continue the vital work of the late Christopher and Dana Reeve, through CRF’s ongoing research and quality of life programs benefiting people living with paralysis.
SupermanTag.org offers a cool and dynamic site that features photos of celebrities wearing the Tag, inspirational stories of those who are Going Forward with the help of the Foundation, downloadable banners for websites and personal web pages, and the opportunity to easily buy Tags for yourself and loved ones.
The Foundation has received tremendous support from Warner Bros. Consumer Products and DC Comics with the creation of the Tag and website. They have provided the Foundation with the use of the S-Shield for the Tag and the name SupermanTag.org for the website.
Euro RSCG 4D, an integrated marketing communications agency, contributed pro bono website design services to create this unique site and Miles Technologies, a top provider of information technology services, donated hosting facilities for the site.
“SupermanTag.org is a wonderful place for people to learn more about Christopher and Dana’s inspiring legacy, the everyday heroes who inspired them and how wearing the Tag can support their vision,” said Kathy Lewis, President and CEO of the Christopher Reeve Foundation. “We are very much appreciative of the time and services Euro RSCG 4D and Miles Technologies generously donated to create and host this fabulous website, as well as of our partners at Warner Bros. Consumer Products and DC Comics for providing the use of the S-Shield.”
“We are delighted to be working with the Christopher Reeve Foundation for such a worthy cause,” stated Cheryl Rubin, Senior Vice President, Brand Management for DC Comics. “We couldn’t be more pleased that the Foundation has currently raised over $800,000 from the sale of these tags.”
Euro RSCG 4D’s Managing Director Jane Barratt added, “We were thrilled to have been a part of the latest efforts of the Christopher Reeve Foundation. This was a great opportunity for us to utilize the skills and passion of our team to further a wonderful cause.”

I have a son-in-law who has just become permanently paralyzed from the waist on down in an automobile accident on April 10th. I would like to get him and his wife a set of the Superman Tags, but can find no place on the website to make a donation and get the tags. Please adivise me as to how I can do that.
