Have you recovered from the holidays?

 

I know the Jigsaw community has been very busy—not just because of the usual holiday hustle and bustle but because, as a community, you added almost 750,000 contacts to Jigsaw during our Season of Giving. This means we’re donating $15,000 to the Shelter Network. 

 

That $15,000 you raised will go to help homeless families & individuals on the San Francisco Peninsula become rapidly and permanently re-housed.

 

But our Season of Giving doesn’t end there. We’re taking this one step further. The Jigsaw Community Marketing team is donating our time to the Shelter Network as well—and we’re hoping you can join us!

 

Join us Thursday, January 26 from 1pm-4pm at the First Step for Families Shelter in San Mateo. We’ll spend the afternoon painting their community space and organizing donations—to help this Shelter Network organization give bay areas families a fresh start in 2012.  

 

After, volunteers will join the Jigsaw team for drinks and appetizers at the Steelhead Brewery in Burlingame for happy hour. Come for a drink and feel free to bring any Jigsaw or Data.com questions you might have!

 

Sound like fun? You can RSVP Here

Wish I was out on the Left Coast - you guys do the most amazing things...so much more than a company!  Kudos

Way to go folks!

 

Giving back to the community deserves at the very least a Kudos!  

 

For those of us not in the Bay Area...  is there any chance of organizing a similar event in Vegas during the Rainmaker event?

 

A lot of hands makes the work go quick!

If I were on the west coast I would definitely make it. For all of you in the area you should try your best to make it, not only do you get to participate in this worthy cause you get to meet all of the fine people at data.com and you will not want to miss the happy hour at the Steelhead Brewery!

Then there is the January meeting for Bay Area Data Connectors (BADc) at 6:30pm in San Mateo. Sign up via Meetup.com

Great idea, Stingray! We will look into doing something like that for Vegas.

Volunteering at Shelter Network was an awesome event. We made such a difference in such a little time. Our efforts were really appreciated.

 

It was great to meet the staff from Jigsaw and another jigsaw user. Sorry I wasn't able to go for the Happy Hour afterwards. Next time!!

 

Thank you for organizing this!!

@GreenieGal-it was great to meet you, too! Thanks for much for coming out, and for supporting this cause and Jigsaw.

 

We look forward to doing something like this again next year, if not sooner. Hopefully we can round some more awesome members up to join us next time :smileyhappy:

It is great to be doing things like this! Any word on a possible similar-type event in Vegas?
