Announcing the Helping Mom and Dad Campaign on Tilt



Toronto, ON – July 2, 2015 – Boris Tesel is seeking to raise funing for his parents as a special thank you so that they can buy their own home. His folks are survivors and are older, but they still pay their own way and insist on being independent.

Like your typical loving parents both worked long hours for Boris’s benefit. Growing up he took his parents for granted and he described himself as a brat. He felt more entitled than appreciative and he wasn't an easy kid to deal with, so he wants to show his appreciation now that he is an adult.

Boris’s parents never owned a house. In Latvia, at that time it was still under the soviet communist regime so ownership was not allowed. In Canada when his folks finally managed to save enough money for a decent down-payment on home instead of buying one they gave it Boris so that he could buy a very nice home. Since then their financial situation has declined and Boris started a Tilt campaign to raise money in gratitude for his loving parents.

About the Tesel Family
Boris and his parents immigrated to Toronto, Ontario Canada in 1979 from Riga, Latvia. His parents’ names are Zina and Fayvus. His dad is 72yrs old recovered from a stroke four years ago and is still working at furniture assembly line. His mom 65yrs old and suffered a stroke two years ago and was forced to retire early because she still has not recovered fully.

San Francisco, CA – July 1, 2015 – Everyone knows someone whose keys are always jingling. Vince Ho was sick of being that guy and he was tired of all the fancy “smart” key organizers. They all added bulk, unnecessary weight, made it harder to access keys, or just didn't even work. Long story short. heI like his keys on a ring but hated the jingle, so he created MagKey: the most effective, minimal, lightweight, and functional smart key holder out there. Just peel, stick and snap. Voilà - no more noisy keys!

It’s easy, quiet, ultralight, minimal, and universal. Don’t worry about what type of key you have. As long as your key is in fact a key, it will work.
