For Benjamin, a DI associate, DI means job training and new horizons. After a back injury, Benjamin could no longer work in freight delivery, and he found himself struggling to find employment. At Deseret Industries, Benjamin is able to receive the support and training he needs to get started in a new career: phlebotomy.
For Maggie, a DI shopper, DI means finding great deals. She’s able to save money on things from home décor and household items to clothes for her kids. As a DIY pro, Maggie also gets inspiration at DI. She loves finding furniture and other items to upcycle—almost as much as she loves knowing that her purchases help people like Benjamin get the job training they need.
For Seth, a DI donor, DI means his family can stay organized and do some good at the same time. To support others, Seth and his family donate items they no longer use. Donating their unneeded belongings helps their neighbors build new lives and careers, and that brings a smile to Seth’s face every time he pulls into the donation dock.
