The other day we learned about how Conductor donated backpacks to underprivileged schoolchildren in New York City. I asked for more stories of how the search community is giving back.
Well, I'm happy to report that I was promptly emailed by Bazaarvoice chiming in on how, they too, donated backpacks to kids!
Bazaarvoice donated 200 backpacks to Communities in Schools, a dropout prevention organization in Central Texas. The drive was organized by the Entrepreneur's Foundation of Central Texas. There's a picture of the Bazaarvoice team on the EFCT's Facebook page. Employees were allowed to take time off of work to give back to the community.
Great job, Bazaarvoice!
