Florence I.T. Computer help business support and consulting for Northampton, MA

The "Plant a Tree with Florence I.T." campaign for the month of December, 2009 is simple: Clients this month simply continue what they are doing already, using Florence I.T. for their I.T. support. For EVERY HOUR spent on services we will plant ONE TREE in the client's name. There is no limit. The program is being offered because we believe urgent action is needed to reverse the effects of climate change. Instead of only our company doing what it can for the environment, we want to continue to tie the rewards to customer action.

Florence I.T. began offering I.T. consulting, Value Added Reselling and I.T. support with a strong social and environmental focus from the start in early 2005.  We donate a large portion of our yearly profit to local nonprofit and community programs, usually around 15%.  As a home based virtual business, we employ (and deploy, for clients), remote access technologies which have clear environmental benefit. Our home office employs the aid of a grid connected solar electric system  that covers most of our yearly power requirements. Client locations are intentionally focused to the immediate geographical area to minimize travel.  We use LED and CFL lights, hardly any paper, responsibly recycle, and use and offer low power computing solutions whenever possible. In addition, we use a small "off-grid" solar setup that runs the Florence I.T. web server (yes, what you're reading this on), completely on solar power, independent of the electric grid.

Through a partnership with a social change entrepreneurship that's endorsed by the United Nations Environment Programme... we have planted 100 trees in the name of various clients.. SO FAR.
