Warm, Fuzzy, Feelings

Hey everybody, Jeremy here, Managing Director of The Human IT Company, Vancouver’s best outsourced IT company, and one of the few outsourced tech support companies that specializes in charities, non-profits, and associations.

I’m recording this today a few days before U.S Thanksgiving, which means we’re also about a week away from Giving Tuesday. First we have Black Friday, then we have Cyber Monday, but then we have Giving Tuesday. And as an organization that deals with a lot of Charities, non-profits and associations, and as a board member myself of a non-profit, I can tell you that Charities are in fact different. To work at a charity, the people are different, the people care in a different way. Charities are there to make the world a better place. They’re trying to right the wrong, they’re trying to help the downtrodden, they’re trying to address the injustice, they’re trying to be the voice for those who have none, and the work that they do is invaluable.

Realistically, if we look around the world at the economy, world events, business, politics… I mean, let’s be honest, it’s a bit of a shit show out there right now. And so we need these organizations more than ever, because really that’s all they’re trying to do is make the world a better place, they’re trying to help us all so that we have maybe one less thing to worry about, or maybe we have to worry not quite as much, because we know that somebody is looking out. Looking after trying to do work in support of those initiatives that matter to us.

So here’s my ask this year… instead of blowing your entire budget on Black Friday or Cyber Monday maybe put aside $20 maybe $50, maybe $75, or more if you can afford it, and hold on to it to giving Tuesday. Find an organization that’s doing something that’s meaningful to you, whether it’s social work,  whether it’s environment, animals, human rights, children, medicine… There’s so many organizations that are trying to make the world a better place. Give them a few bucks. 

If you’re not sure who to talk to leave us a message in the comments, visit us on our website www.humanitcompany.ca send us a message there, or give us a call at 604-336-8133 and we can hook you up with some Charities that are doing amazing work. We can help you find a group that is doing something that’s meaningful to you. So this year maybe we can all make the world just a little teeny tiny bit of a better place. Thanks for watching have a great day.
