OperaNuts Receives Digital Marketing Tutoring through New York Cares


Timothy “Tim” Maleck is an accomplished accountant and investment professional who has served as a financial associate at a reputable Investment Manager in New York. Outside of the professional environment, Timothy Maleck is an active supporter of the charitable nonprofit New York Cares.

Specializing in linking willing volunteers with the individuals and organizations that need them, New York Cares works in fields that range from education to hunger prevention. OperaNuts and its founder/owner Rachel Roth, for example, have benefited greatly from New York Cares’ computer basics program.

A small boutique candied nut business, OperaNuts may have never gotten off the ground. While listening to the Metropolitan Opera on the radio, Ms. Roth had refined a delicious confection of almonds, chocolate, and sea salt. It was a great product, but she didn’t know how to launch it in a world of digital technology that had, frankly, left her behind. 

To aid with the OperaNuts launch, Ms. Roth enrolled in the one-on-one New York Cares tutoring at the New York Public Library’s 67th Street location. Even after five years of regular Thursday afternoon meetings, she continues to take advantage of this tutoring program to this day.

Over the years, New York Cares has helped Ms. Roth and OperaNuts develop an official company website, create effective MailChimp email campaigns, and craft compelling electronic newsletters. Looking at the New York Cares volunteers as friends as well as tutors, Ms. Roth has rewarded them with many tasty OperaNuts gifts.

2018 Cycle for Survival Events in New York and across the Nation


Timothy (Tim) Maleck resides in NY and carries out a career in the Financial Services Industry. Alongside his work lifestyle, Timothy Maleck supports charitable organizations such as Cycle for Survival.

Founded to support those with rare cancers, Cycle for Survival gives 100 percent of the donations it receives to research efforts at the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. To raise funds, the organization hosts numerous indoor cycling events across the country every year.

Already, over 70 rides in 16 different cities have been scheduled to take place in 2018. In New York City, for example, Cycle for Survival will host a cycling event at Equinox Rockefeller Center February 9-11. The event will include five different ride times.

Anyone who wants to be involved in the New York event can become a team captain and form a team of four to eight cyclists, or they can choose to join an already-existing team. Teams share a stationary bike during the relay-style event, and must raise a minimum of $1,000.
