Customers can shop at many different places for the products we sell. You could go online or shop at a big box store and probably find most of the products we offer at a lower price. So what’s the difference? Why should anybody buy from Small Dog if the big box has it for $20 less? The answer is simple: Here at Small Dog you aren’t just buying a computer, you are supporting your own community as well. While we may not be able to compete with some of the prices offered by big box businesses, what we can’t match in price we certainly make up for with charitable donations and support of our local communities.
For the month of October, Small Dog Electronics is continuing its charitable giving and commitment to its triple bottom line of People, Planet and Profit by supporting Domestic Violence Awareness Month. Domestic violence is a serious problem that, regrettably, is often overlooked in today’s society. Although recently more people have been taking a stand due to the media attention surrounding the NFL and other high profile stories. This is especially the case since the shocking details of the now infamous Ray Rice incident were released to the public eye. The fact remains that these people are real victims and they deserve better than to be swept under the rug for somebody else to deal with. Small Dog Electronics, wants to bring this issue to the forefront of everyone’s mind by raising awareness and generating support for the organizations responsible for the outreach and care for these victims. We are extremely excited to be able to support such a wonderful cause and three amazing shelters/organizations in our communities. Shopping in any of our stores will support a local organization for that store:
Waitsfield and Burlington: Women Helping Battered Women
Rutland: Women’s Network and Shelter
Key West: Domestic Abuse Shelter Inc.
When shopping this October remember that the money you could save by shopping elsewhere can instead be donated to a great cause in your local community. With the purchase of a new computer, iPad, Beats headphones, Otterbox cases, and more we will donate $15-$50 of every purchase! However, if you do up end up shopping with one of our competitors, we urge you to please consider donating to your local shelter/organization on your own. These are good people that need our support in order to help others in need.
