Kent Swig and MFTA help education, arts and the environment
Philanthropy is often at its best when businesses utilize their expertise and resources. Kent Swig, a real estate mogul and known philanthropist who won the 2005 Realty Foundation “Man of the Year” award, recently began using old furniture towards a good cause. Swig Equities partnered with Materials for the Arts (MFTA) – an organization that donates office material to arts and education programs with limited budgets. Already, Swig Equities has contributed over 230 office chairs, seven bookcases, five file cabinets, and ten platforms. Efforts such as these also reduce waste and greatly benefit the environment.
