Just Give: Gifts That Do Good…and Feel Good
‘Tis the season of giving! Did you know this year Americans will spend an average of $700.00 dollars on holiday gifts totaling more than $465 billion? What if there was a way to give back with every purchase? This Christmas you can give back by shopping online through iGive.
iGive allows you to shop online through more than 1,700 stores such as Banana Republic, Apple, Nordstrom Rack and more. As you shop, a percentage of your purchase goes towards the cause of your choice including the Material Handling Education Foundation!
The Material Handling Education Foundation (MHEFI) promotes the study of material handling, logistics and the supply chain by exposing students and educators to the industry through financial support. MHEFI provides funds through private and corporate donations to students, teachers and their institutions. All programs and events contribute to the growth of future industry leaders, teachers and researchers.
Since the foundation was established in 1976, more than $2.5 million in scholarships and grants have been awarded to students at colleges and universities in the United States and Canada. Thirty-four scholarships were awarded for the 2016/2017 academic term for a total of $116,460. Your donations are very important to the continued support and future of supply chain and material handling. Join iGive today and give back to your community this holiday season.
