Fundraising isn’t new to EIM. Located in downtown Dayton, this company of
more than 150 employees takes volunteerism and participation in charitable
events very seriously. In 2008, EIM’s employees raised nearly $25,000
benefitting such charities as SISCA, the Miami Valley Down Syndrome
Association, March of Dimes, Helping Hands, Operation Smile, Forging
Responsible Youth and the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. In addition, a
variety of drives are held throughout the year where toys, clothing and
other items are donated to local organizations.
EIM’s Charity Committee spearheads these events, which not only raise
money for local charities, but also give employees a chance to give back to
their communities and have a little fun at the same time. In 2008 the annual
“Evening Under the Stars” event was held at Benham’s Grove in Centerville,
benefitting SISCA. Each ticket holder received a canvas tote filled with
food, wine, Esther Price chocolates and a gemstone from Jaffe Jewelers.
Participants enjoyed a live jazz band, an outdoor movie, tasty grilled
cuisine and a silent auction with donated items ranging from iPods to luxury
travel packages. This event has continued to grow each year and 2009
promises to be an exciting one.
“EIM is fortunate to have such a caring and giving group of employees,”
said Bob Miller, President and CEO of EIM. “Giving back to the community is
very important at EIM. Our associates participate in a number of charity
events throughout the year, and we’re really looking forward to the Battle
of the Businesses!”
EIM’s Greater Dayton Battle of the Businesses team includes 24 associates
who must participate in at least two events. All events are held at local
gyms and sports venues and are expected to be well attended in support of
Ohio Special Olympics.
