Cutco Sales Representatives (CSPs) with Vector Marketing Corporation recently returned from a corporate retreat where they volunteered with New Orleans Habitat for Humanity in the 9th Ward. More than 100 sales representatives and employees of Vector Marketing spent the day readying New Orleans Habitat homes for their new owners. Activities included roofing, siding, exterior painting and yard work.
In the weeks leading up to the retreat, the CSPs collected donations from their Cutco customers to donate to New Orleans Habitat through the use of a Bubble Bank, a fun and creative way to save money and collect donations. These donations contributed to a total company donation of almost $10,000.
“This is the first year that we incorporated community service into our annual CSP retreat. The response from our representatives was overwhelmingly positive and fits with the company’s philosophy that in order to be successful, you must first help others to reach success,” said John E. Whelpley, president and COO for Vector Marketing Corporation.
