Cause Marketing Initiative (CMI): In the Cause Marketing Initiative (CMI), you work with a team of IMC students on a marketing communications project for a local nonprofit organization. Projects may include creating a social media strategy or developing a plan to brand the nonprofit. CMI gives you a chance to apply what you’ve learned in the classroom to an organization that would benefit from your marketing knowledge. In turn, Chicago-area and national nonprofits use this pro bono marketing support to further their community reach and social impact through improved communications. Each spring, teams present their work to their clients, and the CMI leadership team hosts a celebration where you can learn about all of the work each team conducted throughout the quarter.
