Origins of Donate & Learn Workshops:
The workshops are an initiative created by Green Lotus (Toronto Search Engine Optimization & Online Marketing Company) to support Toronto's local non-profit organizations/charities, and provide informative workshops for small and medium businesses with a focus on social media, online marketing strategies, and the tools needed to achieve online marketing goals.

When asked what prompted him to create such an initiative, Baseem Ghali, founder of Green Lotus, stated "I wanted to find a way to support local non-profit organizations and charities this holiday season, and looked into volunteering my time. I then thought that if I used my online marketing skills, as well as my professional and social networks, I could perhaps generate a larger effect. I shared the idea of doing an education workshop, with all proceeds donated to a local charity, and got nothing but encouragement, support, helpful ideas, and volunteers. The Donate and Learn Workshop is the result of the collaborative work of a multitude of individuals. I look forward to the event at the YWCA, and hope that we can make a difference in the lives of women and children through the Adopt-a-Family program."
