The Marketing Professionals Inc., a New Brunswick-based sales and marketing company, announced that the company recently donated time and manpower to Feed the Children, an international, nonprofit relief organization that delivers food, medicine, clothing and other necessities to individuals, children and families who lack these essentials.
Duran Kelly, president of The Marketing Professionals, and approximately 20 office team members spent several hours on a recent Saturday boxing up personal and household products that ultimately benefited about 600 families. The boxes, which were shipped to The Boys & Girls Club of Boston, MA, contained items such as shampoo, soap, lotion, lip balm, cookbooks, and face products.
“We felt that it was important to contribute to this cause so that we could give back to the community and help those who are less fortunate than we are,” said President Duran Kelly. “Our team had a great time filling the boxes and everyone was proud to have made a big impact in a short amount of time.”
Many team members at The Marketing Professionals have families and children of their own and understand the importance of helping a family to receive basic necessities that they may be unable to provide for themselves.
“I am proud that we had so many people dedicate their time and efforts to help a cause such as Feed the Children,” said managing partner Nick Zimmerman.
