Showroom owner International Market Centers has announced its support of the newly launched "Six Causes that Matter" campaign led by High Point Furniture Market.
IMC's donation will be shared equally among the six organizations selected as beneficiaries of the program for the upcoming Market.
The Six Causes That Matter this October will include: Oct. 22, City of Hope (in memory of Center Points Lynn Davis); Oct. 23, Susan G. Komen; Oct. 24, Habitat for Humanity; Oct. 25, American Red Cross; Oct. 26, National Furniture Bank; and Oct. 27, Open Door Ministries.
Each day of Market, one of these charities will be spotlighted, offering an opportunity for exhibitors and attendees to make a donation to that days charity. IMC will have signage in all of its lobbies to encourage exhibitors and market visitors to contribute to that days charity. Promotion will include signage, lapel pins, social media (#hpmkt6causes), press alerts, and more. More information can be found here.
"We are committed to making a positive impact in the home furnishings industry and the High Point community, and this is a great opportunity for us to give back," said Robert Maricich, CEO of IMC. "We applaud the High Point Market for spearheading this compassionate outreach for six worthwhile organizations, and we are pleased to contribute to each one, along with the many exhibitors and attendees who are expected to participate."
