A Season of Giving & Tax Deductions: Join Us in Supporting Future Generations of Marketers
As 2016 comes to an end and as we all look towards 2017, I’d like to wish all those out there in my community happy holidays and best wishes for 2017.
I’d also like to invite you all to help me and the team at mCordis & The Connected Marketer Institute support future generations of marketers by making a tax-deductible donation through our fundraiser for Marketing EDGE. Marketing EDGE is a 50-year-old non-profit that’s dedicated to helping our nation’s college and university students develop the skills for a vibrant career in marketing and giving their professors the resources to help the students succeed. Donate before the year ends to secure your 2016 deduction.
Make a Direct Tax Deductible Contribution; you can join companies like mCordis and Predii and contribute directly to Marketing EDGE through TCM Institute Marketing EDGE fundraiser hosted on CrowdRise program.
You can also support Marketing EDGE by getting involved with The Connected Marketer Institute. Through the TCM Institute, you’ll learn, get inspired and meet industry leaders, all of which will help you with your 2017 objectives and success in the years to come; you’ll also be helping Marketing EDGE. Join The Connected Marketer Institute, attend and/or sponsor the TCM Institute Summit & Awards Ceremony, and mCordis will donate a percentage of the proceeds to Marketing EDGE.
