“I just wanted to take a second to thank the sponsor of this video, [insert VPN provider here], for supporting the channel!”

If you’ve been on YouTube in the past few years, this message likely sounds pretty familiar. Virtual private network providers have been taking advantage of the trend of influencer marketing to spread awareness of their largely obscure product—often, offering an enticing deal. While we have and will continue to promote the use of a VPN for business purposes, we wanted to clarify something here: these are not the VPNs we’re saying you should use.

Ronkonkoma, NY – June 8^th, 2023

Techworks Consulting, Inc. has initiated our Techworks Gives Back program, where our team has dedicated time and resources to help nonprofits and our Long Island Community by providing technology they typically would go without. As part of this initiative, we have curated a dedicated team who have donated their time and expertise to review and refurbish decommissioned laptops and desktops, ensuring it is restored to full working order.

In an effort to give back to the community and support organizations making a difference, Techworks Consulting recognized the immeasurable value of equipping non-profits with essential resources as they often face budget constraints. By repurposing the gently used laptops, the company aims to bridge the technology gap and empower these organizations to fulfill their missions more effectively.

Techworks Gives Back is delighted to announce that our recent donation of ten refurbished laptops will be donated to Long Island Against Domestic Violence, a non-profit organization committed to providing support and resources to survivors of domestic violence. These laptops will enable the organization to enhance their services and further their mission of breaking the cycle of domestic abuse.

Over the past month, the Techworks Gives Back volunteer team has been volunteering our time diligently to assess 10 laptops and perform necessary repairs and upgrades and replace all required hardware. We’ve ensured that the donated equipment met the highest standards of quality and performance. Through their meticulous efforts, the laptops were transformed into refurbished workstations that perform as if brand new.

It seems that you can’t turn your head nowadays without seeing artificial intelligence being incorporated into some software or platform. However, many leaders in the technology space have expressed their concerns about—as they put it—the “profound risks to society and humanity” that AI poses, outlined in an open letter. 

We recently started to pick apart the concept of procrastination as a means of understanding it better, and potentially, getting better at not doing it. Last time, we touched on a few ways that procrastination can potentially manifest, so it only made sense to us that we would continue pulling that thread and try to help you identify how you tend to procrastinate more specifically.

You’re probably familiar with the concept of a mission statement, particularly in terms of your business as a whole. Did you know, however, that you don’t need to stop there? You can—and we’d argue, should—establish more specific organizational missions for your different departments. Let’s consider how you can benefit from creating a mission for your IT team to uphold throughout its operations, and how you might go about doing so.
