LOCAL TECH STARTUP ENCOURAGES COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT
THROUGH 12 DAYS OF IMPACT CAMPAIGN
The 12 Days of Impact campaign kicks off on Giving Tuesday, inspiring acts of kindness and generosity
WATERLOO, ON | NOVEMBER 29, 2022 — Profound Impact™ Corporation, a local startup based in the Toronto-Waterloo technology corridor, is giving back to the community this holiday season and encouraging other companies to get involved.
The 12 Days of Impact kicks off on Giving Tuesday, building on the global movement to encourage people and organizations to contribute their time, resources and talents to making their community a better place.
“The Profound Impact team knows that small acts of kindness and generosity can have a big impact within our community,” says Sherry Shannon-Vanstone, founder and CEO of Profound Impact. “Giving back does not have to be time-consuming, expensive, or difficult and the 12 Days of Impact calendar really proves it. For the second year in a row, we’re engaging our whole team in these simple acts of kindness and we hope to encourage others to do the same.”
The small team with big hearts at Profound Impact has developed a calendar of community actions throughout the month of December. From donating clothing to helping out a neighbour, the campaign offers simple suggestions on how to make our communities stronger by working together.
“We’re challenging others in Waterloo Region and across southern Ontario to take part in the 12 Days of Impact,” Shannon-Vanstone says. “We want to build a community of ambassadors who are committed to making an impact where they live and work. No action is too big or too small and our calendar focuses on how to make giving simple and accessible to everyone.”
Anyone accepting the challenge is encouraged to follow along with Profound Impact’s calendar or create their own. Participants can share their actions online through #12DaysOfImpact.

LOCAL TECH STARTUP PROFOUND IMPACT™ PARTNERS WITH GIVING TUESDAY TO KICK-OFF THE 12 DAYS OF IMPACT CAMPAIGN
The 12 Days of Impact Campaign is Profound Impact’s way of inspiring acts of kindness and generosity throughout the community that builds on the Giving Tuesday movement
WATERLOO, ON | NOVEMBER 30, 2021 — Profound Impact™ Corporation, a Waterloo Region-based tech company offering a suite of digital engagement and impact measurement tools, is launching its 12 Days of Impact campaign – encouraging small acts to create big impact. Building on the global #GivingTuesday movement, the 12 Days of Impact campaign is designed to encourage people and organizations to contribute their time, resources and talents to help address local challenges.
“The team at Profound Impact believes that encouraging small acts of generosity can have big impacts on those who experience undue hardship,” said Sherry Shannon-Vanstone, Founder and CEO of Profound Impact Corporation. “We hope that by engaging our team in a calendar of ‘good deeds’, we can inspire the collective power of individuals and businesses to do the same, amplifying the resulting impacts.”
The small team with big hearts at Profound Impact makes a start internally by matching their team’s contributions to charitable organizations and sharing fun challenges to engage everyone in giving. Externally, Profound Impact organized a social media contest aimed at providing underrepresented youth opportunities to engage in STEM programming, something Sherry Shannon-Vanstone and her team are passionate about.
As a next step, Profound Impact challenges others to take part in the 12 Days of Impact campaign, sharing your acts of generosity and kindness through #12DaysOfImpact. These acts include donating food or funding to a local food bank, buying a toy for a community toy drive, helping a neighbour in need, cooking a meal for someone in need, donating warm clothing and paying it forward to a stranger. No action is too big or too small and collectively, we can make meaningful contributions to the betterment of our community.
“The holidays can be a particularly difficult time for vulnerable members of our community,” said Shannon-Vanstone. “We hope that through these small acts of generosity, we can inspire others to give back (in whatever way they can) making a positive impact during the holiday season.”
