SPONSORSHIP HEROES
From hosting a chapter board meeting to discounting food and beverage or décor at events, the numerous ways that
MPI-CAC’s sponsors provide their support is vast but the results are the same—being a vital component of our success.
Success is a financially stable organization that provides timely, cost-effective professional development, educational and
networking programs.
Thank you to the following companies that supported chapter programs held during the 2010 program year.
Remember – BUY MPI! Thank you to…
