a new year brings new year's resolutions and one of hours of techno Buffalo is to give back more we're really fortunate here they have the opportunity to play with the ton of tech and share it with you part of our responsibility I feel is to give back to the community so HB reached out to us as we wanted to do a video featuring their new page wide series of printers we said yes absolutely but instead of just doing a linear video on a printer and uploading it to YouTube we said wanted to take a hundred percent of the money that HP was going to sponsor us with and give everyone on the staff an opportunity sponsor charity of their choice so we ended up with 10 different charities in each one got a donation of one thousand dollars so Before we jump into the charities and run through everything that we did I definitely want to make sure I take a moment to thank the product that made this entire giving possible and that's of course the HP page wide print NHP was really on board with this idea from day one so it's kind of cool to see the page wide printer which we legitimately liked and why we agree to the video in the first place is need for a few reasons first it is forty percent lower cost to print color crazy fast speeds you can print up to 75 pages per minute it's got incredible security environmentally friendly as well it uses way less energy than most printers on the market us for example we've got the page wide pro mfp here that are printing out a ton of things in color in our footer printed before sales deck sponsorship rolls things that help us with retention that color just make things look better the network connectivity of the HP page wide printer has made it super easy now for the entire office to connect we started printing out labels and we've now printed out a full editorial calendar for us to actually physically see and I may or may not have come in after hours and printed out invitations to my son's holiday party at school because the color looks really good and it's not very expensive so I don't learn more about HP of their page wide proceeds of printers and you definitely should there's a ton of them they all do really awesome things fast or quiet RS has NFC built-in network enabled hit the link down below to learn more the cherry that I think is one that's really near and dear to my family and that's the prostate cancer foundation odds are cancerous at your family in some way shape or form for me something that my dad has had to deal with and fortunately has made a full recovery from and the cancer is gone but scary to actually want to support at perhaps I looked maybe have prostate cancer in the future I want to make sure that it is well funded so they were the first one that got a donation another charity we all agreed on with the Second Harvest Food Bank so we went over to costco picked up about four hundred and fifty dollars of food loaded into two trucks it's to our local second harvest but on top of that we also gave a five hundred fifty dollar donation to help feed people in need so wanna learn more about any of the cherries we're going to talk about we're going to link to them down below
