"At BluFi we make it a priority to help our local community. We know there are impoverished elderly in our area that need nourishing food and we wanted to help The Angel's Depot with volunteers and financial donations through our BluFi Cares Community Outreach Program," said BluFi Lending CEO and President John Lee. "We typically have 40 or more of our team step-up for our various volunteer projects. Our team of people at BluFi have huge heart and that's what makes it a great place to work."
The Angel's Depot provides food for the elderly living below the poverty line in San Diego County, and promotes awareness and support for impoverished seniors' plight.
"BluFi Lending first packed meal boxes in November 2010. They brought their team and their CEO, John Lee. They were fast, organized, excited, efficient, and when it was over, they cheered, cleaned up and asked when they could come back. And they presented an unexpected $5,000 check! A token of their respect for our seniors," said Susan Hall, founder and executive director at Angel's Depot. "Blu Fi is setting a great example in the community. They are our newest community stars!"
BluFi is dedicated to making a positive impact in the community. BluFi Cares Community Outreach Program participates in programs such as the San Diego Food Bank food drive and the Dress For Success suit drive, which donates business suits, shoes and accessories to low income job seekers. Other community events are planned throughout the year. BluFi Lending will also be at Angel's Depot this December to pack boxes for seniors in need again this year.
