VP Employees Step Up to Help End Poverty in the Community

We have many reasons to be proud of the hard working, dedicated employees of Velocity Partners LLC including their big hearts.  Throughout 2016 VP made monthly donations to Hopelink, a charitable organization that works toward ending poverty in the greater Puget Sound area.  It was also the charity our company chose to be the recipient of a special Christmas donation. 

 

In addition to the firm’s support, our U.S. employees got involved in a big way by raising money as well as purchasing donations that were targeted for area teenagers.  Items included Seahawks gear, ear phones, yoga mats and other sports items.  Our generous employees ended up donating more than $1,000 worth of goods that were delivered to Hopelink in time for the Christmas celebration.  We also had several employees attend the Hopelink annual luncheon where they made further donations that were matched by Velocity Partners.   All total we raised $5,000 for Hopelink.

For a little background on the organization, Hopelink was started in 1971 on the vision of a community free of poverty.  It is the largest social service agency in north and east King County and serves homeless and low-income families, children, seniors and people with disabilities.  Their goal is to provide stability and help so that people can gain the skills and knowledge they need to become self-sufficient.  Each year Hopelink’s services reach about 64,000 people.
