Local Company Turns to Charitable Giving Despite Economy

Online, October 11, 2011 (Newswire.com) - Despite the present economic conditions across the country, some companies are managing to find ways to expand their philanthropic practices.

Esigns.com is doing just that with a new initiative to help raise funds for finding a cure for breast cancer.

"Cancer does something to a person that's hard to define. It can consume your identity," says Christopher Culver, an Esigns CSR who is the son of a cancer survivor. He went on to say, "the people at Karmanos don't believe that. They care for their patients in a way that is both professional and personal. They treat cancer like a temporary obstacle, rather than a definitive end. They give grace and dignity to the people under their care."

By Karmanos, he's referring to the Karmanos Cancer Institute located in Detroit, MI, that Esigns recently formed a Community Partnership with to help raise the funds. When the discount code "pink-ribbon" is entered, 10% of the order total will be donated to the Karmanos Cancer Institute. The code can be used on their full line of products found at Esigns.com.

Esigns' hope is that, while no discount is provided, their customers won't mind, because the quality they getting for the price is above and beyond what is normally found elsewhere. Combine that with the following testimonial and the cause it's for, and they're pretty optimistic.

"I found Esigns on line when I was looking for someone to take over printing our 4'X 8' sideline banners. The first thing that caught my eye was the cost and how easy it was to put in my artwork and place my order. They were $100 cheaper per banner than what I was paying, and when they arrived the quality was outstanding..."
