Local Community

Located in the middle of “the sweetest place on earth”, Hershey, Pennsylvania, IGI Global strongly advocates for support for the local community. Each year, IGI Global staff volunteer their time, as well as raise both monetary and product donations for various causes that benefit the community, including:

The American Cancer Society

The American Cancer Society hosts Strides Against Breast Cancer walks which are the largest network of breast cancer awareness events in the nation. Through these walks, communities are able to honor breast cancer survivors and raise awareness about the steps needed to reduce this cancer.

IGI Global will be serving as a Pink Ribbon Sponsor for the 2018 Strides Against Breast Cancer walk in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. Through this sponsorship, IGI Global will actively participate in this walk and provide needed funds to assist in innovative cancer research, promote education and risk reduction, and provide comprehensive patient support.

Children’s Miracle Network & Penn State Health Children’s Hospital

Raising funds for 170 children’s hospitals across the United States and Canada, the Children’s Miracle Network supports research and training, purchases equipment, and pays for uncompensated care in order to save and improve the lives of as many children as possible.

Each year, IGI Global participates in a Pay 4 Play radio marathon sponsored by 105.7 X in Harrisburg, offering staff the chance to donate money to ensure the best possible care for the sick and injured children at Penn State Health Children’s Hospital.

Additionally, September 2017 marked the first time IGI Global sponsored the Annual Hershey Miracle 5K Race. Several IGI Global staff members also participated in the 1-mile fun run/walk which directly benefited the Penn State Health Children’s Hospital.
