CONSTANT CONTACT AND UNITED WAY HOST COMMUNITY MATCH-UP NETWORKING EVENT

Cares4Kids "Community Connections" event pairs Constant Contact customers with local Tucson children's organizations in need

Tucson, Arizona - September 18, 2008

Constant Contact®, Inc. (NasdaqGM: CTCT), a leading provider of email marketing and online surveys for small businesses and organizations, today announced its Tucson Arizona Cares4Kids "Community Connections" event. Held in conjunction with the United Way, this evening's reception and networking event will bring together Constant Contact customers and local organizations that provide social or educational support to children as well as drive community participation.

Constant Contact's Cares4Kids program empowers its more than 200,000 customers to help strengthen their communities by nominating a local nonprofit to receive Constant Contact's SpeakUp! Email Marketing, and ListenUp! Online Survey tools. The nonprofit can use these tools, free of charge, to drive awareness and increase communication with donors, volunteers, program participants, and the surrounding community.

"The Cares4Kids program has been instrumental in helping us drive awareness and improve communications with our constituents and board members," said Peggy Solis, director of Community Relations & Visitor Services for the Tucson Children's Museum. "Since joining the Cares4Kids program more than a year ago and starting our email newsletter campaign, we have seen a significant increase in our membership numbers and responses to our special events and offers. We couldn't be more pleased with Constant Contact, and are thankful for the help of our sponsoring partner, CRIZMAC, for its role in getting us started with the program--it has been a success from the start."

On behalf of Constant Contact and the nominating customer, each nonprofit organization receives a free email marketing and online survey account. Constant Contact customers that participate in the Cares4Kids program can share their experience and expertise by working directly with their sponsored organization to help them develop and deploy their own email marketing campaigns.

"We understand how important the Tucson Children's Museum is in shaping the development of our local children, the educational community and the school system, while remaining a place for kids to just have fun," said Kathleen Williams, vice president, travel and publications for CRIZMAC. "We are thankful to be able to give back to such a great organization through the Cares4Kids program and are proud to have helped them establish a new, more effective way to solve their communications needs."

Through a valuable partnership with the United Way, Constant Contact has made free SpeakUp! Email Marketing and ListenUp! Online Survey accounts available to each of the 1,300 local United Way Chapters nationwide. These accounts help United Way Chapters across the country establish and maintain dialogues with essential volunteers, donors, and community partners to grow their organizations by using email newsletters and online surveys.

"Constant Contact's Cares4Kids program is a great partnership match for the United Way, and with so many of our local agencies dedicated to providing social or educational support to children in need, Tucson is a great place to introduce the 'Community Connections' event," said Brittney N. Long, director, marketing and communications, United Way of Tucson and Southern Arizona. "We look forward to expanding our participation in the program and bringing together agencies in need of better communications tools with the generous Constant Contact customers who are dedicated to participating in the Cares4Kids program."

"We are committed to helping our customers succeed in meeting their business objectives, while also empowering them to help local children's causes in their communities in a meaningful way," said Eric Groves, senior vice president, worldwide strategy & market development, Constant Contact. "In order to truly understand and support the communications needs of nonprofit organizations in the communities we serve, we enlist our more than 200,000 customers to partner with us to ensure the ongoing success of the Cares4Kids program. Through the Cares4Kids 'Community Connections' event, and our partnership with the United Way, we look forward to welcoming even more organizations to the Cares4Kids program."
