Giving Back – Barcoding in the Community
Making an Impact in the Moments that Matter
A Mission to Serve Our Communities
Barcoding, Inc.’s mission includes positively impacting our social communities. From corporate involvement to dedicated employees, Barcoding, Inc. is making an impact.
“Develop a consistently profitable, growth oriented and sustainable company that provides opportunity for personal success for all of its employees while positively impacting customers, business partners and social communities.”
Serving Baltimore and Beyond
Founded in Baltimore, Maryland, Barcoding has remained true to its roots by supporting local events and organizations. Several members of our leadership team serve on nonprofit boards, including Wide Angle Youth Media and the Fuel Fund of Maryland.
While there is a focus on Baltimore, we also support causes important to our employees and customers across the country. Some of the organizations we’ve supported with technology, donations, and volunteer support, include: Tour de Cure, Ronald McDonald House, Health Care for the Homeless, Junior Olympic Sailing, the Baltimore Child Abuse Center, Patterson Park Public Charter School, Ulman Cancer Fund for Young Adults, Stephen Johnson Memorial Fund, National MS Society, Steve Smith Foundation, Inspire, Baltimore Foundry, Achilles Heel International, SARC, Crop Circles, and more.
For the holidays, we let our customers choose which non-profit sectors mean the most to them, and then, in their honor, we pledge a total of $6,000 across three organizations. In 2016, based on the votes, we donated to the Wounded Warrior Family Project, Feeding America, and the Ronald McDonald House.
One of our most hands-on initiatives involves our work with Baltimore YouthWorks – where we bring in a city high student to intern at the company’s headquarters in Baltimore. Our first student intern is now a full-time employee and college student. We believe this type of program is one of the best ways to live up to our mission.
