SF Intl Gift Fair Keeps A Longstanding Commitment

San Francisco International Gift Fair Donation raises $17,000 for Under One Roof, “The shop that benefits the AIDS community”

A longstanding community partnership was reaffirmed on the latest Gift Fair August 2007. Eight pallet loads of merchandise donated on August 1 by exhibitors at the SF International Gift Fair went to Under One Roof, helping to raise over $17,000 for the fight against AIDS.

Deana Hemrich, Operations Manager of Under One Roof, estimates that a large portion of the money funneled to AIDS groups is made possible through the efforts of Moscone’s Recycling Program.

The show returns to Moscone on January 26-30, 2008. For more information about this community partnership, go online to www.sfigf.com or www.underoneroof.org
