In my previous life, I was a non-profit fundraiser, who was in charge of community events. The only banner signage available then was conventional, vinyl banners, which, as you know, are quite costly. At each event I was the “banner guard.” Not only did I ensure that the event ran smoothly, but also I made sure that the banners were not stolen. Ugh! What an awful job! I constantly had to keep my eyes on the signage. Then after the event it was my job to roll up the banners carefully so that I could reuse them at other events.  I wish that I had had Banners on a Roll! It would have been so easy to unroll a line of repeating imprints, put them up, and leave them for fans and participants to take home as souvenirs.  I also would have had ready-made table skirting for registration tables and banquets.

It’s so easy to imagine ways to use Banners on a Roll: table skirting, signage at community service events and fundraisers, backdrops for photos, and barriers to cordon off special areas.  All sorts of organizations can use Banners on a Roll. Corporations can use them not only in the community to brand events, but also for in-house activities such as company picnics, annual meetings, and conferences.  Non-profits can use Banners on a Roll at orientations, fundraisers, and banquets. Colleges and universities, additionally, can use Banners on a Roll at alumni and athletic events.

Even though the prime-time holiday season has come and gone, the needs of disadvantaged children have not. Giving and caring for others should be a focus throughout the entire year. One client of ours is truly exemplary in providing service and works hard at it all year long.

Meet the Marine Toys for Tots Foundation.  For those who are less fortunate during the holiday season, Toys for Tots steps in to lend a helping hand by providing toys for children all around the United States.  Toys for Tots was founded in 1947 by Major William L. Hendricks of the United States Marine Corps and to this day still accomplishes every year the gift of giving by bringing a toy together with a child during the holidays.

This last year was particularly successful:

“The results of the 62nd annual U.S. Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots Campaign, conducted during October, November and December 2009, have been tabulated. The results are: U.S. Marines distributed 16.4 million new toys to 7.4 million less fortunate children throughout the nation. This was one of the most successful campaigns in the 62 year history of Toys for Tots – and this in spite of the economy.”
