Change for Life Program Expands Into Stationery Industry
Gift for Life, the gift, stationery and home décor industries’ leading charitable organization, announced that its successful Change for Life fundraising initiative will be expanded into the stationery industry for 2011.
Change for Life raises charitable funds via a modest donation from manufacturers for each order received at a trade event. During the Winter 2011 gift and home markets, more than $20,000 in contributions were raised through more than thirty participating companies.
Corporate partners in the stationery industry are being sought in order to maximize donations for 2011. Companies exhibiting at the National Stationery Show, May 15-18, are being asked to donate a minimum of 50 cents per order received at the show.
Stationery industry partners will join participants from gift and home décor including Alexa’s Angels, CR Gibson, Evergreen, Global Views, IMAX, Ivystone, Lazy Susan, Lindsay Phillips, Mud Pie, One Coast, Two’s Company, Uttermost and many others.
“We look forward to continuing the expansion of this efficient and important fundraising program that is so easy to manage and makes a big difference,” said Stu Teller, vice-chair of Gift for Life. “The stationery industry is filled with generous companies that will help expand Change for Life.”
