Social inclusion for young people in difficulty

For too many young adults, life is not always easy. Many of these young people simply can not find a solution to meet their needs independently.

Fortunately, there are agencies that offer practical solutions in which they allow these young, often 18 to 30 years to develop new skills and find a place in this society.

It should be understood that many of these young people must earn their living and they must learn a profession. Moreover, these young people lack the financial means to pay for studies in special schools to be successful in obtaining training in a shorter period than traditional training. For these young people to rush through life with the hope of living well, it is essential to provide adequate training with real opportunities to find a good job.

Here is a great example that will inspire many of us, in addition to providing quality products at really affordable prices. http://www.insertech.qc.ca/

A social insertion company that provides services assembly, update and computer repair. We sell new and second hand computers.

An efficient company involved in the field of social economy

Insertech is a social insertion company that works in the field of computers. Since 1998 we’ve been helping young adults with a low educational level or battling personal problems, to enter the labour market and regain control of their lives.

These young adults occupy different positions in the company, working under the supervision of qualified technicians. During the training period – which has a 6 months duration - the program’s participants carry out different tasks that allow them to identify their fields of interest and help them find quality jobs.

Over 40 young adults complete our training program every year. Insertech’s results are very impressive: over 90% of the participants of the insertion program find a job or return to their studies. This exceptional result demonstrates the motivation of the program’s participants and the quality of the training they receive.

Our non profit organization is directed by an administrative council integrated by members who come from different areas: Business and administration, Education and Social Development. The president of the council is Mr. Gérald Larose.

A social purchase that protects the environment

Insertech Angus produces 6000 computers per year, including new and refurbished equipment. These computers are distributed to schools and non profit organizations at a very low cost, or are sold to private companies and particular clients. In 2002, we launched the first "social" computer brand of North America: Insertech Angus became a registered computer trademark.

They offer a powerful and reliable product, assembled with Intel® processors and components of excellent reputation.

Our clients purchase quality products and at the same time they give a second chance in life to our young workers.

In addition, through the computer refurbishing process, Insertech contributes to sensitize people about the importance of protecting our environment.

The cries from the heart of aid agencies to needy

The crying need of aid agencies to the poor is larger than life in this time of economic crisis. Not only the number of donors has decreased, but the amount of donations has also decreased. Obviously, with this time of sorrow and sharp economic slowdown, the number of people in need has increased significantly. Therefore, negative impact on the quantities of food available to meet the needs are great.

How can we help these organizations?

Of course there is the most effective way is to make a cash donation to enable agencies to make necessary purchases. However, when you donate, it is important to learn about available payment options. You can do this by credit card, by monthly payment, participating in activities, etc..

I'll be a little more specific in my comments, I'll talk about the Montreal area. The most effective way to help the poor is through http://www.moissonmontreal.org/ Members are regularly supplying nearly 200 organizations that provide food and nutritional support for people in need.

There are also several accommodation agencies that must be supported by community and by business people. Do not forget that all aid agencies to the poor are always in need of funding, resources and materials of all kinds. Take a few moments of your life to determine how you can help one of these agencies in one way or another. Make a visit to the website of the charity of your choice and see how you can participate in supporting these people who need help.

Very important notes

Whatever your current situation, always remember that life is sometimes surprising and you're never safe from the unexpected that can propel you at speeds unheard of among the people in need. Probably your situation will be temporary, but when this happens you will understand that these organizations will be essential and will help you meet your basic needs and find support for yourself regain control and become independent.

Do not judge those who need help from these organizations in one way or another.

When you see a helpless person in the street, make your imagination go and scroll down in your mind the scenario of the life of this person. Did he dream one day to live this life of misery, of course not. When she was still a child, what were the dreams of that person's, ambitions and how has it been encouraged and supported to achieve these dreams. You understand that we cannot believe that the current situation of each of these people is absolutely not fulfilling their childhood dream.
