July Donations Being Made

by

Our annual Christmas In July charitable giving event is underway.  We've made some decisions on who gets donations, while others are still up in the air.  santa_beard1

I can tell you that there are a couple different themes to the giving this year.  The first is "water."  We've made donations for water cleanup already – the ocean, and a small lake.  "Think globally, act locally" is what they say.  Well, we're doing both.

Stay tuned for more information on who we're helping.  I urge you and any organizations you belong to – work, hobbies, church, etc. – to consider starting your own Christmas In July giving event.

Christmas Is Coming!

santa_beard1Our annual Christmas In July giving event is almost here.  Every year, we give out cash donations to a few charitable organizations.  While other companies run sales to bring money in, we're actually doling it out.

We prefer to donate where the money is not going to be used to cover things like marketing, but rather goes directly to the heart of the organization's focus.  We've donated to cat shelters, homeless outreach programs, a group home for those severely impacted by autism, cancer research centers, and others.

I'm asking you to contact us, either publicly or privately, and make suggestions about who/where could use a little cash and a little promotion.  We'll make our decisions at the end of June, and make the awards in July.  I also urge you to make a similar donation yourself, or have your company do so.  It can be a matching donation for one of ours, or some place you know your donation will do some good.

So. . . your suggestions?
