Social Purpose

Image Group completed the Social Purpose Innovators Program at the United Way Social Purpose Institute. To answer the question: ‘How do we create value for society?’ we reached out to our staff, suppliers and customers for input and then created our Social Purpose:

We exist to use the power of gift giving to raise up people and planet.

Doing better is what we strive for every day. Through our products and our actions, we work to make the earth greener and to ensure that all our interactions with our clients, suppliers, community and staff are positive and kind.
