Giving in Business

Most of us are familiar with the traditional types of businesses, you know, the capitalistic models whose sole purpose is turning profits. Then we have the feel good charity oriented organisation, and from time to time, there’s the for-profit companies dabbling in give backs so they can fulfill their corporate social responsibilities.

But another approach is sweeping the business world merging both sides of the coin, Profit for Purpose - a more rewarding endeavour and the model that QueenMode has adopted. 

Here's why…

The idea behind a profit-for-purpose business is led by the desire to give back, not just in monetary value but something a little more tangible that can be paid forward for generations to come.

First Nations and POC communities are well aware that money alone is not enough to affect the change we want to see in the world. Sharing a skill, resource, time, equipment, and of course, money all contributes to growth in our people and our communities. 

We want our daughters, nieces and grandchildren to have the opportunities we did and more. 

We want to pave the way for others so they're not reliant on handouts from people in the future to develop themselves. And we want to do that while growing our net worth ourselves.

At Queenmode, we believe that there is more than enough wealth and resources in the world for us to all thrive. And the paying it forward approach gives us a chance to grow our First Nation community collectively. It is a conscious decision founded on human kindness and the desire to give someone else a chance. And the best part is that there are many ways you can be a part of the movement.

If your product, service, or skill set is made to do good and that intention is central to your business, there will be no conflicts with making money. It'll just go hand in hand. 

So we encourage you today to look inward to see what you have or what you can do to make someone else better in your community.
