Ingram Micro Inc. (NYSE:IM), the world's largest wholesale
technology distributor and a global leader in IT supply-chain,
mobile device lifecycle services and logistics solutions, today
announced a $100,000 charitable gift to Ivy Tech Community College,
located in Indianapolis, Ind. The charitable gift will be used to
support the supplemental instruction services offered through the
college's student resource center.
"Ingram Micro's acquisition of BrightPoint gives us a second
home in Indianapolis, and we recognize the importance of supporting
education in the communities in which we work and live," said
Bashar Nejdawi, president, Ingram Micro Mobility North America.
"Ivy Tech aligns with Ingram Micro Mobility as a critical thread in
the fabric of the local community, as both organizations have a
rich history of providing Indianapolis residents with a quality
education and meaningful employment. We couldn't think of a better
partner for one of our most important focus areas than Ivy
Tech."
This donation follows a long history of support for Ivy Tech
Community College by legacy BrightPoint, which was acquired by
Ingram Micro Inc. on October 15, 2012.
"We have always enjoyed an excellent relationship with
BrightPoint and are very excited to have Ingram Micro Mobility's
continued support in helping provide resources for the more than
27,000 students who rely on the services of our resource center
each year," said Dr. Kathleen Lee, Ivy Tech Chancellor. "Both Ivy
Tech Community College and Ingram Micro Mobility are devoted to the
city that is our home, and this is a wonderful celebration of the
power of education."
