  Share This Story

ATLANTA - (BUSINESS WIRE) - Capsalus Corp. (OTCBB:WELL) announces that it has signed NFL legend, entrepreneur and philanthropist Dan Marino to serve as international spokesperson for one of its partner companies Wish Upon A Hero (WUAH), the world's largest online social helping network. Connecting people in need with those who want to help, www.wishuponahero.com has granted more than 70,000 wishes since launching in 2007. Capsalus placed a significant investment in WUAH last fall.

As WUAH's spokesperson, Marino will serve as the inspirational leader for the Wish Ambassador network - a community of volunteers on the ground in cities across America who can be mobilized in times of emergency or community need, to reach out to local "heroes" to help those in need. Marino will also host future television programming for WUAH, including the soon-to-be-launched online Hero-TV channel.

Bringing Marino on board was a key objective of WUAH's ambitious growth plan, which Capsalus helps execute. Beyond its financial stake in the company, Capsalus provides strategic stewardship to optimize reach and overall business performance.

"Given Dan's global appeal, coupled with his understanding of and appreciation for improving quality of health, which he has so clearly demonstrated through his work with The Dan Marino Foundation, the executive teams of both Capsalus and Wish Upon a Hero saw him as a tremendous asset in our collective efforts to grow this enterprise," said Kevin P. Quirk, CEO of Capsalus, which invests in or acquires innovative niche companies with high-yield potential, such as WUAH, in the health, wellness and goodness space. "Drawing on our network of contacts, we achieved what WUAH is all about - making the perfect match."

"Dan Marino is the prototypical American hero, and we are excited and honored to have him join our WUAH team as spokesperson," added Dave Girgenti, founder of WUAH. "Dan has not only excelled on the football field, but has made philanthropy his life's work. He is truly one of the good guys - and will so effectively spread the good news about the power of WUAH."
