From Cardboard Cities to Creative Learning: How International Paper’s Designers Engage Communities and Share Our Sustainability Story

Sep 9, 2024 11:00 AM ET

Our Customer Commitment Centers and graphic designers are integral to our company’s community engagement efforts. Whether its creating puppet shows, dinosaurs and rocket ships, or learning about how to run a business, our designers create visually appealing content that draws in our community members and teaches our sustainability story and company values.

In Minneapolis, we contributed corrugated supplies for a “Cardboard City” makerspace at the Science Museum of Minnesota. The materials were part of a building and engineering studio where science educators, children and parents used their imagination and ingenuity to make something new, or reuse something that was already built!
