Michigan Businesses Embark on Charitable "Giving Spree"

Rochester, MI, December 21, 2015 (Newswire.com) - Local marketing agencies DPro and Tipping Point divided up into teams last Friday for the second annual “Tis The Reason” charity event. More than $3,000 in cash and goods were donated to unsuspecting residents in Pontiac, Madison Heights, Detroit, and other Metro Detroit locations.

Team members filmed the reactions of their grateful beneficiaries under the social media hashtag #TistheReason. A compilation video of the event can be found on the YouTube channel “DPro Agency”. The event’s founders stress that the video element is not for recognition, but to inspire others to embrace the spirit of giving this holiday season.

We wanted to do something different for our Holiday party, so we set up teams and hit the streets. The results were priceless in smiles, hugs and over whelming gratitude.
