Through its one by one philanthropic giving program, promotional products retailer 4imprint donated more than $30,000 in promotional items to more than 50 nonprofit organizations and charities throughout the United States and Canada in the first quarter of 2012.
In the spirit of 4imprint's commitment to customers and community, the one by one program aims to help charities boost awareness for their organizations, reach customers, promote events, thank key audiences and much more through $500 in-kind donations of promotional products. The program also offered many donations of product samples to community organizations to use to further their cause.
"The organizations that received these one by one grants are doing important work in their communities," explained Kevin Lyons-Tarr, 4imprint president. "It is inspiring to see the impact they are making and we are honored to play a small part."
