Contributions to a good cause
As of January 2008, Maxibit started the Maxibit 1 % Percent Back Programme. Through this programme, Maxibit is committed to give one percent of its net profit every year to non-profit organisations. We choose organisations that work with environmental and humanitarian aid work.
Supported organisations
In the spirit of this programme we decided to join World Wildlife Fund for Nature (WWF), a global environmental conservations organisation, and SOS Children's Villages' who works to give orphaned children in poor countries a chance for a better life. We choose the organisations to support through a joint decision by the Maxibit staff.
The importance of the programme
By contributing to these kinds of organisations we believe that we can make a small but important difference in our society. To make a difference even in just a few people's lives, to save any species or plant life may create a big difference in the future.
We also believe that by contributing to environmental and humanitarian causes we will have a company and a staff that are stronger, prouder and more efficient than if we would not stand behind these important causes.
