Seva
At the core of my company is the idea that we can help make the world a better place. Not only can I help businesses achieve that mission, but I also donate a portion of my earnings to organizations working toward the same mission.
This is my Seva, a Sanskrit word that means “service”.
Seva is the yogic practice of being in service of others, whether by offering to share our abundance or by showing compassion toward others.
Here I list the programs and organizations that we donate to each month in my mission to uplift those around us.
Who we donate to
My team voluntarily donates a portion of their earnings to organizations that are making impactful contributions toward some of the world’s greatest problems.
