Gift for Life, the gift and home industries’ sole charitable organization, will honor Trevor Cohen, president and CEO of Giftcraft, during its 26th annual Party for Life, Monday, February 5, in New York City at a new location, Stage 48. Cohen will be awarded Gift for Life’s Chuck Yancy Lifetime Achievement Award. Trevor Cohen and Giftcraft have also pledged a $25,000 donation to kick off the Party for Life fundraising campaign, which last year raised more than $225,000.
“No one is more worthy of this distinctive honor than Trevor and his company,” said Gift for Life Chair George Kacic, who prior to his position with AmericasMart, served as a sales executive with Giftcraft and has known Trevor for decades. “His company management, his industry innovation and his tremendous generosity are all factors that have made him a respected and appreciated leader.”
“I am honored to receive this lifetime achievement award and to be recognized by Gift for Life for my contribution to our industry,” said Cohen. “I proudly accept this recognition on behalf of my Giftcraft family who have supported me all the way.”
