This week, Volusion was recognized by the esteemed charity, March of Dimes, for our contributions to the organization this year.
One of our core values is to “Rock the Golden Rule.” This means that we treat others as we want to be treated and care for each other, our customers and our community. This week, we completely rocked out the golden rule by being awarded “Best New Team” by the Austin March of Dimes for the March for Babies 2010 event.
Our team participated in raffles, contributed donations, and marched in the event itself. Better yet, after all the contributions from the team was tallied, Volusion made a 100% match to double our amount! This led to a whopping $6,000 to support this charitable cause and earn us the distinguished honor.
While we’ve gathered tons of pride for awards that herald our software, nothing matches the sense of goodwill we take from winning awards like these. We can’t wait for the 2011 event!
Happy (and charitable selling!)
-Matt Winn, Online Communications Specialist, Volusion

Team Austin. The guy in the midriff shirt got an extra $50 donation for walking around like that. Whatever it takes to help the cause!
