Giving back undoubtedly has a
positive effect on the communities
in which we live. All it takes is
finding that spark and taking
that first step. Before you know it,
you're forging a path to build
a better world for all.
been able to achieve that goal so many
times. " Indeed, her organization has had
a palpable impact on so many people,
whether they're children thrust into a sad
or dangerous situation through no fault of
their own, or community members devasted
by a hurricane, or young adults who
lack the funds or means to improve their
life situations.
Thompson states that, although they're
secondary to helping the beneficiaries themselves,
the positive impacts on volunteers'
own well-being are impossible to deny.
" [Our staff] have enjoyed working as a team
and feel like they're having a positive impact
on the environment and local community, "
he says. Thompson hopes that other companies
also observe this positive impact and act
in kind. He adds, " As a global AV distributor,
commercialintegrator.com
it's important we are leading by example. If
we can share all the great things we're up
to, I hope other local businesses and other
#avtweeps follow suit. "
Certainly, seeing others give back can
inspire peer companies to join a common
mission. Rogina proclaims, " [It's] a fantastic
way to unite the organization with partners,
customers, family and friends. " Being united
behind a mission often creates a more
caring environment and boosts company
spirits. And, according to Sandri, " Being
involved in different charitable initiatives
does elevate the presence of the company
and underscores its position as a caring
entity. " Here, she says, partner organizations
are attracted to FSR, wanting to work
with people who are dedicated to a cause.
However, Sandri notes that, of course,
promotion of the business should never
be the primary goal. " Giving back to the
community and the industry is the priority, "
she underscores.
Steps to Building
a Better Community
The next question is how people can prioritize
giving back and make it part of their
lives. Sandri advises those who are considering
taking up volunteer efforts to do their
homework and find a cause about which
they're passionate and whose mission they
hold dear. " Find an organization that has
goals to match your own and do it, " she exhorts.
" Don't overthink. " The imperative to
act is strong, and worthy causes need all the
help they can get. " There is so much that
can be done, and [there are] never enough
