Diana Hovey, Senior Director, Dine Out for No Kid Hungry, said: “As RLC conference sponsors, Spendgo and Epson helped contribute to our cause in a meaningful way. We appreciate the time and effort both companies have put into increasing awareness and making our fundraising a great success.”
Gregg Brunnick, Director of Product Management for POS Printers, Epson America, commented: “No child should face hunger in our country, so we were very happy to contribute to No Kid Hungry together with Spendgo. As the Spendgo platform is integrated with our OmniLink line of printers, we were able to deliver a smooth, loyalty based experience for each customer who participated and make a nice contribution to this invaluable charity.”
