wishes to thank the following
supporters for their generous
contributions:
LUMINARY
e’re all on a budget. We set budgets
for ourselves to allocate funds appro-
priately and keep ourselves on track
for the future. With so much going
on in each of our professional lives, it’s often hard to fit
in nonessential spending, even for a good cause. While
sticking to a budget is extremely important in both the
business world and everyday life, it’s possible to still
support charitable initiatives, even with a tight budget
to work with.
Donating to the ISPA
Foundation Live & Silent
Place Your
Bids in the Hub!
Auctions is one of the most cost-efficient ways to support
2017 ISPA Conference
the ISPA Foundation. If you already have a product on
& Expo on-site auction
hand or have extra merchandise, donating is quick, easy
bidding opens at
and won’t set you back financially. It is also a great
11:15 a.m. Monday,
complimentary exposure opportunity before and at
Oct. 16 in The Hub.
Conference.
Don't miss it!
And while monetary donations are always appreciated,
donating your personal time is also valuable to the Foundation’s
initiatives. Volunteering for a task force helps bring new and fresh ideas to the industry and
furthers the goals of each committee. Sometimes, just a little time can make a large impact.
Each year the ISPA Foundation offers the Mary Tabacchi Scholarship to a deserving
student pursuin g a career in the spa industry. Simply sharing the scholarship application
with potential applicants not only supports the Foundation, but also the future leadership
of our industry, which is invaluable.
Any contribution to the Foundation, whether it be monetary or your personal time, is
always appreciated. Even with a tight budget, charitable initiatives can remain a priority.
Don’t let your budget stop you from supporting a good cause and furthering the spa
community.
