In the spirit of giving, Millcraft, a wholesale distributor for several printing verticals including apparel decoration, gives back to communities in the Midwest. The Cleveland, Ohio-based company ran its Buy & Give initiative for its eighth year, first debuting in 2015. Since then, the Buy & Give copy paper purchasing program has had a serious impact — contributing nearly $700,000 to support the charitable work of nonprofits.

A $1 donation is made to the program for every carton of Buy & Give brand office paper bought. Millcraft collaborates with Domtar, a sustainable paper, pulp, and packaging company, to promote the multi-purpose paper across Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Kentucky, Michigan, Tennessee, and West Virginia.

“Buy & Give, conceived as a simple idea to leverage everyday copy paper for local charitable giving, has evolved into a cornerstone of Millcraft’s mission — to meaningfully impact the communities in which we operate daily,” Millcraft President and CEO Travis Mlakar stated in a press release. “Our entire team is dedicated to supporting this cause. Being able to contribute in a modest yet significant way to these remarkable organizations is a source of collective pride for all of us.”
