Humanity truly transcends space and time, given evidence by the cross-border and transnational outpour of aid and donations. On a microcosmic setting, this is what a Hawaii-based BPO company plans to bring to its offshore base in the Philippines.
Techmonde Corporation's CEO and president, Matthew Mee-Lee, draws a blueprint that will enable the company and its employees to engage in community giving both through time and money. The concept is a rudimentary adaptation of the BRIDGE program which Matthew has learned from Steve Metter, CEO of MW Group, Ltd.
The concept basically entails that employees get to have 20 hours of paid volunteerism in an organization of their choice.
"We encourage the employees to pick a local community program to donate their time to," he said. "And for every hour they spend in that program we pay in to a general pool and that money gets donated to another community program."
According to Matt, in a country where the immediate concern is to provide for the needs of the family, the principles that this program offers are a good way of instilling a sense of public service to the archetypal corporate employee, and Techmonde Corp. opened a separate but identical opportunity for social involvement.
By setting a culture of public service, the company would establish itself as a unique kind of BPO, offering their services both privately and publicly.
