Blue Global Media Spreads Holiday Cheer

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., Dec. 2, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- This holiday season Blue Global Media is giving back to the local community, organizing a company-wide food drive and making a donation to the Salvation Army that provided 25 Thanksgiving meals for the homeless. Being an active participant in the community is part of the culture at Blue Global year-round, says CEO and founder, Chris Kay.

"This time of year shines a light on those who are less fortunate and the many ways we can help our neighbors during the holiday season," Kay said. "But we make it a point at Blue Global to actively seek out opportunities to make a difference — locally, nationally and globally — all year. It's who we are as a company, whether we're providing our customers with online lending products and services, or we're supporting a cause we believe in."

In 2015, Blue Global donated to a wide variety of non-profit organizations, from the Arizona Animal Welfare League (AAWL), the largest and oldest no-kill shelter in Arizona, to Packages From Home, an organization that provides supplies to American troops deployed overseas. The company also made monthly donations to PlanUSA, TerraPass and the United Way. Through PlanUSA's child sponsorship program, Blue Global supports more than 200 children living in impoverished areas. With TerraPass, the company promotes sustainability and environmental protection by purchasing carbon offsets to reduce its footprint. And through the United Way, Blue Global's monthly donations go to help local families with financial advisement, homelessness and hunger.

As part of its commitment to promoting financial literacy for consumers, this year Blue Global also pledged support to the Jump$tart Coalition for Personal Financial Literacy, which brings together organizations that share a commitment to advancing financial literacy for preschool through college-age youth and collaborating to offer effective financial education.

"Charitable giving and activities are as ingrained in our culture as developing and offering products in a responsible, transparent and compliant way," Kay said. "Being a good citizen goes hand in hand with being a good business. It's simply about being aware and responsive to the needs of people, whether it's a customer or the community. In both aspects, we'll continue to look for opportunities to serve and make a difference."
