To get into the spirit this holiday season, Kontera adopted a local family through Compass Community Services, who provides housing, education and employment services to San Francisco’s homeless and at-risk families. Kontera adopted family of six and our employees purchased gifts from the family’s wish list, ranging from gift cards to provide the family with a healthy holiday feast, to shoes, robes, teddy bears and knitting needles. We wrapped the presents just like Santa’s elves would, and then placed them under the Kontera tree for delivery to the family. Kontera’s participation in the adopt-a-family program helped to provide thousands of presents for over 150 families, including 250 children. At Kontera, we really enjoyed celebrating a season of giving, and look forward to more community service activities in the future. Thank you to our publishers and advertisers who help make our generosity possible. We couldn’t do it without you!
