One Good Cause Deserves Another

Comment

Given the increased focus on cleaning, we recently shared some information about SQM’s second company, Minus H2O.

While we certainly appreciate anyone who supports our business, in light of the Covid-19 crisis,  we would also like to help other organizations that are in need of support during these challenging times.

To help others, Minus H2O will be donating 10% for every bottle sold in Canada, to the Food Banks of Canada, and for every bottle sold in the United States, to Feeding America.  These are very worthy causes that are in need, more than ever, at this time.

You can purchase a bottle by clicking on the following links, or for larger orders, simply contact me directly:

In Canada:  https://amzn.to/2QCDFcZ

In the USA:  https://amzn.to/2VWuic3

Practice #SocialDistancing and #StayAtHome as much as possible.  If you’re in need of cleaning supplies, please avoid crowded stores!

Please share this information with your friends, family, and colleagues and thank you again for supporting Minus H2O as well as these important causes.

Be safe, and be well.

The SQM Team

A Special Thank You

Comment

 

Many years ago, SQM did a project for a gentleman by the name of Wassim, who works for a Canadian company called The Travelway Group. The company is a distributor of various travel-related products: suitcases, gym bags, and travel accessories. One of the products to which they have the licensing rights to are for various cartoon and superhero lunch bags, overnight bags, and knapsacks, such as Dora the Explorer, Frozen, and The Avengers.

Although it’s been several years since we last did any work for the company, I’ve kept in touch with Wassim. From time to time I’ve asked Wassim for a favour, related to some of the charity initiatives that SQM is involved with. In particular, when I’m working on any children’s related initiatives, I’ve called up to see if it’s possible to get some old or extra items that may be sitting around the warehouse, to pass along to the various organizations we are working with.

While I try not to take advantage of his generosity, whenever I’ve asked for something, without hesitation he takes down the delivery information and within days I’ll have a box full of items at my front door.

During my time in business, I’ve always made an effort to support those companies that actively support charitable causes…and especially the ones that and SQM is involved with. As a result, I wanted to do a shout out to the team at the Travelway Group for being a great partner and a great supporter of myself, and SQM. Thank you very much!

‘Tis The Season for Giving

Comment

I hope everyone’s holiday season is off to a fun and festive start!

One of the things I like to do all year long, but especially around the holidays, is to support my community and those around me.  One particular group that I am involved with is Toronto-based Ve’ahavta. As some of you may know from my previous posts, one of the group’s main activities is to provide the homeless with meals and clothing.  During my involvement with this group, I’ve learned that they are always in need of fresh socks and underwear…articles of clothing that people often overlook. I myself never thought of this, and usually donated warm hats, mitts, gloves, and sleeping bags, however, when you think of it, clean, warm, dry socks and underwear is a necessity.

As we’ve done in the past, SQM is launching our annual, Holiday Sock / Underwear Drive.  I encourage all of my friends, colleagues, those on the SQM Team, and in fact…..anyone to send:  new socks, new underwear, or gift cards from either Walmart or Costco to the SQM office. We will deliver the items to Ve’ahavta, who will distribute them to those in need this holiday season and throughout the cold winter months.

We know that this is a busy time of the year and that everyone has their own charities and causes they like to support, but if you have the time or resources, please consider supporting SQM’s Holiday Sock and Underwear Drive.

Lastly, I’d like to thank everyone at SQM, including all of our office staff and field force, for all of your hard work and diligence. I would also like to thank all of our clients for their continued support and business.

Have a safe and enjoyable holiday season and all the best for 2019!
