Investors Bank Grants $2.5K to Non-Profit

On Sep 13, 2016

Robbinsville-based Student Working Professionals (SWP) will continue to provide the business community with “star” marketing interns, thanks in part to a $2,500 grant from the Investors Foundation to the non-profit.

Student Working Professionals’ STAR Marketing Program provides non-profits, companies, and small businesses with skilled marketing strategies at a low cost through the use of student interns. Certified marketing interns are carefully selected, thoroughly trained, and receive real-world marketing experience through the program. Interns effectively provide clients with marketing services such as social media scheduling and management, print and digital design, event planning and organizing, sales, video marketing, e-mail marketing, and content creation. STAR Marketing interns obtain more in-depth experiences while their clients receive quality marketing assistance at a lower cost.

“Student Working Professionals seeks to end the cycle of economic disempowerment for young professionals in the workforce. Our goal is to turn passion into reality for young people looking to get their dream careers,” said Kaitlin Rattigan, Director of Student Working Professionals.

SWP also focuses on the economic crises many students face after graduating college. In order to assuage the accumulation of college debt that can become overwhelming, SWP strives to decrease that debt as much as possible.

SWP applied for the grant from the Investors Foundation, which supports non-profit organizations that enrich the diverse communities served by Investors Bank.

In presenting the grant, Investors Bank’s Pedro Figueroa, Assistant Vice President/Branch Manager – Mount Laurel Office, said, “Investors Bank is thrilled to contribute to the Student Working Professionals’ STAR Marketing Program. Investors Bank believes in supporting the growth of business and marketing, and in giving students an experience that they will use daily within their future careers. Marketing tactics are forever evolving, and by allowing students to take hold of the reigns, Student Working Professionals is embracing the future of marketing.”
