CommentsIntelius, a leader and pioneer in the field of information commerce, was recently recognized as one of the Top 10 corporate philanthropists by the Puget Sound Business Journal’s Corporate Citizenship program. Intelius prides itself as a company that provides key information to businesses and consumers to aid them in making intelligent decisions regarding personal safety and security. Classified as a medium-sized business (a company with $20-500 million in annual revenue) by the Puget Sound publication, Intelius was honored at a special luncheon held on May 13 at the Hayatt Regency in Bellevue, Washington.
In 2009, Intelius, led by CEO Naveen Jain, gave over $360,000 to several local and national non-profits; most of the money (nearly $260,000) given to local Washington State nonprofit organizations. Money was only part of what the company contributed, as several Intelius employees volunteered hundreds of hours to various local organizations such as Hopelink, Treehouse, Youthcare, Boys and Girls Club of Bellevue, Eastside Domestic Violence, Kairos Society, and many others. The group focused on organizations supporting education, family services, basic needs, and youth development.
Anu Jain, Intelius’ Vice President of Community Relations stated, “I’m proud to say that at Intelius, giving back and being a good neighbor is an essential part of our corporate culture. Each year we push ourselves to do more and find new ways to help our community and those in need. In 2009, we increased our giving by more than 75% from 2009, continuing our track record of growing our annual contributions every year since our inception in 2003.”
Puget Sound’s Corporate Citizenship Program is a unique publication designed to award and recognize companies and their philanthropic contributions. The publication shines light on businesses that “do well by doing good”.
