JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – May 21, 2013 – As part of its continued commitment to honor military veterans and their families, CSX Corporation (NYSE: CSX) launched the “Drop and Give Them 10” campaign, a national fundraiser for Wounded Warrior Project^® (WWP).

The “Drop and Give Them 10” campaign runs through May 29.

“At CSX, we are grateful for the courageous service of our nation’s military veterans to protect our hard-won freedoms,” said Michael J. Ward, chairman, president and CEO. “To honor their service and sacrifice, we’re inviting people across the nation to help us ‘push up’ support for Wounded Warrior Project^® – an amazing organization that helps critically injured service men and women return to productive civilian lives.”

Here’s how it works: Now through May 29, when you do 10 pushups and log them on http://www.dropandgivethem10.com/ , CSX will donate $1 to Wounded Warrior Project®. If you post a picture or your experience, CSX will donate an additional $1 up to $50,000 total. Just don’t forget to use the #GiveThem10 hashtag when sharing tweets or Instagram images.

CSX has a long-standing commitment to hiring America’s veterans and reservists. Nearly one in five CSX employees has served in the military, and many continue to hold Reserve or National Guard status. In April 2013, CSX was ranked first on the list of Top 10 Companies for Veterans by DiversityInc.

About Wounded Warrior Project^® (WWP)
Wounded Warrior Project^® (WWP) began when several veterans and friends, moved by stories of the first wounded service members returning home from Afghanistan and Iraq, took action to help others in need. What started as a desire to provide comfort items to wounded service members at Walter Reed Army Medical Center has grown into a holistic rehabilitative effort to assist warriors with visible and invisible wounds as they recover and transition back to civilian life. Tens of thousands of injured servicemen and women, family members, and caregivers receive support each year through WWP programs. Learn more by visiting woundedwarriorproject.org.
