July 11, 2024

At InfoTrust, our commitment to giving back is deeply embedded in our company culture. We organize four give-back events throughout the year, each designed to make a meaningful impact on our community. One of our core values is “Contribute with Passion,” and‌ our efforts to support and uplift those around us reflect this principle. This quarter, from July to September, we are excited to host InfOlympics, an initiative dedicated to promoting health and fitness among youth in a fun and engaging way. Our team members are located all over the world, and this year we will be hosting events in Cincinnati, Chicago, Dubai, the Philippines, Toronto, Atlanta, Columbus, and remotely. Cincinnati and Atlanta will be hosting field game days at the Boys and Girls Club, and Toronto will be running a 5K that supports local children’s non-profits. Other locations are identifying their give-back events to ensure we make a global impact.

InfOlympics: Where Fun Meets Fitness

InfOlympics is an initiative that embodies our commitment to fostering healthy habits in children through enjoyable activities. The event aims to demonstrate that fitness can be fun and accessible, encouraging kids to adopt active lifestyles that can have lasting benefits.

The Joy of Play

Children naturally gravitate towards play, and we harness this enthusiasm in InfOlympics. By engaging kids in various physical activities such as relay races, obstacle courses, and team sports, we help improve their fitness levels, boost their immunity, and strengthen their bones. These activities also teach essential life skills like teamwork and stress management, while addressing significant health issues such as obesity, heart problems, and diabetes.

Making Healthy Habits Enjoyable

A key objective of InfOlympics is to show children that developing healthy habits can be both easy and enjoyable. When kids participate in games and physical activities, they associate fitness with fun, rather than seeing it as a chore. This positive reinforcement is crucial in helping them build lifelong healthy habits.

Join Us in Making a Difference

InfOlympics is a testament to InfoTrust’s dedication to community service and youth wellness. At InfoTrust, we believe in leveraging our success to give back to the communities in which our team members live and work. Through our nonprofit organization, the InfoTrust Foundation, we create miracles centered around better education for all students, ending poverty, and healthcare. As we prepare for this quarter’s activities, we are eager to see the positive impact on the children we work with. By promoting fitness in a fun and engaging way, we aim to help them build healthier, happier futures.

Individuals known as “Community Champions” volunteer their time and/or resources to support our cause. Every event has a designated Community Champion in the respective location. In Atlanta, InfoTrust employee Nikita Banks is our Community Champion for the second time.

“Giving back is like watering the soul’s garden—it nourishes and brings forth the most beautiful blossoms of fulfillment and joy,” she said. “There’s a profound magic in extending a helping hand, in sharing even a fraction of what we have with those who need it most. When I give back, whether through time, resources, or simply a heartfelt gesture, we’re weaving threads of compassion into the fabric of our communities. It’s in these moments of selflessness that I remember the true richness of life—the warmth of gratitude mirrored in someone’s smile, the spark of hope reignited in weary eyes, and the silent strength found in solidarity.”

She adds, “Each act of giving is a testament to our interconnectedness and our capacity to make a positive difference in the world, however small or grand. It’s a reminder that empathy knows no bounds and that kindness, like a gentle ripple, has the power to spread far beyond our reach.”

We invite everyone to join us in this endeavor. Whether you are part of the InfoTrust team or a member of the wider community, your involvement can make a significant difference. Reach out to Stacey at Stacey@infotrust.com to get involved.

Let’s make this summer unforgettable for these children and help them develop habits that will benefit them for a lifetime.
