2020 has been unkind in so many ways. From layoffs and furloughs, to lost contracts and trying economic times. However, this does not exclude NPOs and the various groups that rely on their products or services.
Corporate Responsibility: 2020 Goals
Abelian has always been an advocate for social rights, equality and inclusion. Our philosophy is to be generous in thought, actions and monetarily when we are able. Although we are a small company, our hearts are big. This is especially true with our partnership with the Make-A-Wish Foundation of OC/IE. Our goal for 2020 was to be able to grant one wish to a child in need. Unfortunately COVID-19 took so many things away, including the ability to raise funds and awareness for this special cause.
Our corporate responsibility goal for 2021 is to be able to grant a wish, as well as continue to nurture our partnership with MAW in ways that allow us to achieve our goal safely. Additionally, we are currently scoping other NPOs we would be interested in partnering with and have tasked some of our staff members with procuring NPOs they feel passionate about.
Although these partnerships take time to develop and the assistance may seem slow at first; I am confident that we will be able to make a family smile as soon as COVID-19 releases its reign on all of us. In the meantime, we will continue to work hard to maintain a working environment that reminds all of us our purpose -- to guide others and remain true to our creative passions.
