Donation Spotlight: San Raphael Chamber

We recently had the opportunity to donate to the San Rafael Chamber of Commerce. They were kind enough to answer some questions for us about their wonderful organization.

Name Tag: What is the name of your company or organization? Do you have a mission statement?

San Rafael: San Rafael Chamber of Commerce – Women of Industry Awards Event

Mission Statement: The San Rafael Chamber of Commerce is a member-based business advocacy organization providing a strong voice in support of the economic vitality of our community.

NT: What was donated to you? How did/will it help your organization?

SR: 250 3×4 magnetic badge holders for gifts to participants of the Women of Industry annual awards event.

Your donation of the name badges was invaluable to raising greater funds for our scholarships that offer financial assistance to a San Rafael woman entrepreneur or small business owner so she may attend the San Rafael Leadership Institute – a leadership program of the San Rafael Chamber of Commerce. Without this donation the name badges would have been a necessary expense that would have reduced the funds raised.

NT: If you could describe your company/organization in 3 words what would they be?

SR: Chamber of Commerce

NT: Do you have any other comments you would like to add?

SR: We thank you very much for your continued support of this annual event, now in its 2 year, and look forward to having your support in years to come.

We are so pleased we could help out with the scholarship program at San Raphael Chamber. If you are with an organization that you think could benefit from a donation from our company please contact us a marketing@nametag.com.

Creative Way to Use Badge Holders

Badge holders that have printed inserts to help a young child in school by using dry erase markers.

It’s back to school time, and you need a way to make sure your child is ready. A great creative way to use badge holders to do that is to make a dry erase work book. You can replace the inserts with more challenging material as the school year goes on. Simply wipe away the dry erase marker with a cloth and reuse the badge holders again and again. This way you can make sure your child is ready for tests or quizzes. It is important to play an active role in your child’s life and this is a great way to get involved.

And, our badge holders can do a lot more than that. Do you have any ideas on how to use our badge holders? If so, let us know! We would love to feature your creative ways to use badge holders idea right here on our blog.

Multi Colored Name Tags

For some of you, our classic two colored, laser engraved tags may not be enough. We are here to let you know that you don’t have to settle for less than exactly what you want! You have a myriad of options to choose from. Here we are going to detail the choices you have if you want more than one color on your name tags.

Option #1:Printed Full Color logo on a plastic engraved name tag

This is one of our newest options, but it is a wonderful choice when it comes to functionality. With this process we are able to print your logo in the exact way you send it to us. We can do gradients, and photo quality. The text is laser engraved into the plastic. If you have a logo that you need replicated exactly as it is sent, this is the option for you!

Option #2:Hot Stamped tags

With this option we make a metal die of your logo and melt the colors of your logo into the plastic on the tag. The text is laser engraved into the plastic of the tag. We can do up to 3 colors in the logo, and it gives the tag an embossed professional look.

Option #3: Printed Full Color

This option is similar to the option #1, however in this case the entire tag is printed onto the plastic instead of just the logo. This is a fantastic option for photo IDs, and people who need photo realistic logos.

There you have it folks! If any of these options sound perfect for you, simply click on the links to go straight to the ordering page. If you don’t see quite what you are looking for then please give us a call at:

One of our fantastic Customer Service Reps will be happy to discuss the details of your tags, and recommend the perfect process for you!
