CIG gives 2% of its yearly profits to these charitable
causes because we believe corporations should do whatever they
can to make our world a better place.
CIG Web Assistance Program
Our company allocates a certain number of hours
each month to provide free assistance to non-profit charities,
artists, and social causes.
Santana's Milagro Foundation
The Milagro Foundation was started in 1998
by Deborah and Carlos Santana to benefit underrepresented
and underprivileged children around the world. Milagro,
which means “miracle,” serves children in the
areas of health, education and the arts. The foundation
makes grants to grassroots, community-based tax-exempt organizations
that work with children and youth in the U.S. and countries
around the world.
CIG Endowment for Emerging Artists
Founded in 2001 with a private gift from
CIG founder David Lieder, this charity has given over $25,000
in carefully administrated cash and technical or web assistance
to talented artists who are experiencing a financial obstacle
to achieving a major goal in their career. Artists must apply
each year with a statement of their specific project or artistic
goal. The endowment can assist with the following expenses
necessary to finishing the project or reaching the goal:
- Websites, CIG software
- Education, Classes, Certification
- Art Materials
- Rent, Utilities, Food
- Public Relations and Marketing
