“Supporting the community that helped build our firm isn’t a new concept for us, but this is the first year we’ve moved to charitable gifting for the holidays,” Katie Springob, Marketing Director for Rippe & Kingston said. “For a firm whose employees and owners are involved with so many non profit groups throughout the year…this was a natural fit.”
Over the last few years, the economy has taken its toll on everyone – especially non profit organizations. With uncertainty about the future looming, people were forced to cut back on their charitable contributions. People began looking for creative ways to maintain their ability to contribute to organizations they believe in. So it’s no surprise that people react positively to having donations made on their behalf. “I would much rather see this money go to a worthy cause than spent on a fruit basket gift or bottle of wine for me,” says client Jeff Hiatt, President of U.S. Logistics. Jeff’s sentiments have been echoed by many of R&K’s clients.
