Finding Toys for Tots Makes Echelon Events' Holidays Merry

HOUSTON, TX , December 29, 2017 (Newswire.com) - ​Philanthropy is a cornerstone of the Echelon Events environment, with charitable events to support worthy causes being scheduled throughout the year. Anum, the firm’s President, announced that to finish 2017 on a high note, the team is once again running a toy drive at the office for Toys for Tots, and explained why as well. 

“We did this same type of donation last year, and it worked out great,” Anum explained. “Toys for Tots is a foundation that distributes toys to children whose parents cannot afford to buy them gifts for Christmas. Our associates can’t stand the idea of children going without any presents on Christmas. It’s great to work for a company that helps us succeed but also reminds us to give back. Our team always likes to get involved in some type of philanthropy, but we get especially inspired during the holidays.”

Benefits Echelon Events Enjoys From Philanthropy

While giving back is an act of generosity for the Echelon Events team, Anum notes that there are many benefits to the company when they get involved in charitable events. For instance, when team members are encouraged to support foundations through their workplace, it gives what they do a greater meaning. When they come to work, they’re doing more than building careers; they’re making a difference in the world as well.

This may not seem like the purpose of a business to some people, especially if they’ve worked for companies that focus exclusively on the bottom line. Echelon Events leaders take a different approach though. They recognize that the way their associates feel about the work they do influences their effectiveness, and have created an environment where empathy, generosity, and social responsibility are the norm.

This, according to Anum, has a tremendous positive effect on associate engagement. “Those who are inspired and passionate about what they do are far more productive than people who aren’t. Millennials are particularly aware of the enormous amount of need in the world, and have a burning desire to make a positive impact. At Echelon Events, we help our executives be a force for good, and then encourage them to funnel that energy and enthusiasm into our interactive marketing campaigns. Everybody wins – our team members, the firm, the brands we represent, and the community we support.”
