Caring for Others
Our Soul Statement
Wouldn’t it be amazing if we could give away whatever we have to offer?
Wouldn’t it be brilliant if we could each do whatever we passionately wanted to do, and then give it to each other – just because we can?
Imagine a world where we needed no money because everyone passionately created their joy and gifted it to whoever needed it, in a never-ending spiral of exchange.
“Utopian” I hear you say. Perhaps it is, and, we think it’s worth working towards.
At present, we do live in a commercial world. Money is needed to live.
So we ask ourselves, how can we give and also make money for our continuation and growth, so we can give more.
As part of our Corporate Social Responsibility, TISI decided that one of the best ways for us to support others, would be to align ourselves with a range of Charities we felt were doing an amazing and selfless task, in the areas of Children, Humanity, Wildlife Conservation and Planetary Conservation. We support these Charities with a gift of 10% of all paid memberships. On our membership application form you will find these Charities listed, and, you can choose which of them you would like your 10% to go towards. Here’s a little bit about these wonderful Charities:
UNICEF works for a more equitable world by fighting for the rights of the future: children.
All children have a right to survive, thrive and fulfil their potential – to the benefit of a better world. From post-World War II care packages to fighting Ebola, UNICEF has been working for children for almost 70 years. In 190 countries, UNICEF offices are there if emergency strikes – and to build back after.

Amnesty International is a global movement of more than 7 million people who take injustice personally. We are campaigning for a world where human rights are enjoyed by all. We are independent of any political ideology, economic interest or religion. No government is beyond scrutiny. No situation is beyond hope.

Our mission is to build a future in which people live in harmony with nature. From our experience as the world’s leading independent conservation body, we know that the well-being of people, wildlife and the environment are closely linked. That’s why we take an integrated approach to our work.
We’re striving to safeguard the natural world, helping people live more sustainably and take action against climate change. We spend a lot of time working with communities, with politicians and with businesses to find solutions so people and nature can thrive.
Our projects are innovative, collaborative and based on scientific evidence. And we think big. We run a number of Global initiatives focusing on the regions and challenges where we can make the biggest difference – from the Arctic and the Amazon to responsible fishing.

At Planet Ark we help people, governments and businesses reduce their impact on the environment.
Planet Ark Environmental Foundation is an Australian not-for-profit organisation with a vision of a world where people live in balance with nature. Established in 1992, we are one of Australia’s leading environmental behaviour change organisations with a focus on working collaboratively and positively.
Our Mission is to unite people, businesses and governments through positive environmental actions.
We are unashamedly populist, non confrontational and non-political.

We offer SMEs & Corporates the opportunity to give back to the people who may be currently struggling, down on their luck, cash strapped and finding it difficult to get ahead. Let’s face it; a lot of us have been there!
With our Sponsored Membership we offer the opportunity for SME’s &/or Corporates, once they have purchased their own memberships, to then purchase one (or many) for others. These memberships then go onto our Sponsored Membership wall, and those who are in need of a helping hand in order to study and up-skill themselves, can claim one membership for themselves. Hopefully, once this person gains employment, they will feel they are able to replace that membership onto the Sponsored Membership wall as a gift for someone else. It’s the equivalent of a “suspended” coffee in a café, (or, as the Italian’s say “A caffè sospeso”).
