Don't expect a card the cash has gone to UNICEF
Rather than spend money on Christmas cards, TTI Europe has opted to donate the equivalent sum, and an additional amount, to UNICEF.
This year TTI Europe decided to do things a little differently. Rather than spend money on Christmas cards, the connector and passive specialist opted to donate the equivalent sum, and an additional amount, to UNICEF. Says Glyn Dennehy, VP and Managing Director of TTI Europe: 'We were sure that everyone would prefer to support UNICEF in its efforts to improve conditions for people, particularly children, in the poverty-stricken countries of the world'.
TTI Europe is one of a small number of companies that have replaced traditional Christmas card wishes with festive e-greetings in an attempt to cut waste.
The papermaking trade is one of the highest users of energy in industry and is blamed for huge timber consumption and the discharge of millions of gallons of toxic waste every year.
