Giving Back Purposefully

The staff of Accounting & Finance Professionals and Staff Logic continue to enjoy spending time volunteering and sharing our resources.

We are in the business of getting people to work, so the causes we support tend to be the ones doing the same thing from a different direction: job training for families coming out of homelessness, employment programs for women changing careers, and the practical help that makes either one possible.

None of this is a campaign. It is a handful of organizations we have kept showing up for, some of them for years.

Where we put our time

Five organizations, and what they do.

Homeward Bound

Staff Logic sponsors the employment center at Homeward Bound, where families that come to the center are provided with high-quality job training and skills-building resources. The sponsorship began in February 2017 and it is the one closest to what we do for a living. Families arrive without stable housing and leave with the skills to hold a job, which is the part of that problem we understand best.

Arizona Women’s Education & Employment

AWEE connects clients with the resources needed to help and support them to find better jobs. Their people are underemployed or changing careers, which is a group we work with every week of the year. Their programs cover the ground between wanting a better job and being ready to interview for one.

American Heart Association

A public health education partnership. The AHA provides public health education to help people understand the importance of healthy lifestyle choices, and we help carry that message into the workplaces we serve. Most of what lowers the risk gets decided at a desk or a kitchen table rather than in a hospital.

Adopt-A-Family

Every Christmas our staff participates in the Salvation Army’s Adopt-A-Family program, which provides donations to children and parents who would otherwise go without. The program pairs donors with families the Salvation Army has identified as going without that year. It is the office tradition nobody has to be reminded about.

Esperanza Women’s Center

Esperanza provides a safe place for women who are facing pregnancy and ensures they have the resources needed. We donate computer equipment and children’s clothing. Unglamorous donations, and the ones these centers actually run out of.

Why a staffing company cares about this

A job is the thing that makes the rest of it possible. We have watched it happen for twenty five years: the placement comes first, and then the apartment, the car that starts, the kid who stays at one school. Every organization on this page is working on some part of that same problem.

Arizona’s staffing industry moves a lot of people through a lot of jobs. We would rather the companies in it were also putting something back into the pipeline they draw from.

If your company is looking for somewhere to put its volunteer hours, any of the five would take the call.
