DALLAS, Texas- Alliance Data, a Plano-based leading provider of loyalty and marketing solutions, today announced that the company has again been recognized with a Communitas Award for Excellence in Community Service from the Association of Marketing and Communications Professionals (AMCP). Alliance Data was honored with the 2011 award in the Leadership in Community Service category for its corporate giving program and associated community outreach efforts.
The Communitas Awards are an extension of the pro bono recognition program of the AMCP, and an international effort to recognize the spirit of 'communitas' – derived from the Latin 'people helping people'. Nominees are evaluated based on the extent and effectiveness of their programs, which may involve volunteerism, philanthropy, or ethical, sustainable business practices.
"Alliance Data is committed to creating meaningful change in our local communities through corporate giving, employee volunteerism, and community reinvestment," said Alyson Evans, Alliance Data spokesperson. "We truly make it a priority to stretch our corporate giving beyond traditional efforts to not only benefit those most in need, but also educate our employees on community needs and empower them to make a hands-on difference."
Last year, Alliance Data and its employees provided support both financially and by contributing more than 10,000 volunteer hours to various national and locally based non-profit organizations. Some of those supported organizations include United Way, LaunchAbility, Mid-Ohio Food Bank, Kids Help Phone, ChildCareGroup, Children's Medical Center of Dallas, World Wildlife Foundation, and Boys & Girls Clubs of America, among many others.
