LTi Technology Solutions, a provider of lease and loan cloud technology for equipment and asset finance companies, donated more than $6,500 to Youth Emergency Services (YES) and the Love Life Now Foundation.

Every year, LTi picks a few organizations to give back to, and this year, LTi picked YES and the Love Life Now Foundation. Employees could either donate money or buy specific items that were requested, with employees raising more than $3,300 in donations. LTi matched that number, boosting the total donation to more than $6,500.

YES provides housing and support to youth experiencing instability, crisis and homelessness. As a member of the Continuum of Care, YES partners with other local agencies to address homelessness in communities. The organization exists specifically to help youth and young adults break the cycle of homelessness by creating goals, establishing stability and achieving self-sufficiency.

The Love Life Now Foundation is a global awareness and education organization that supports survivors of domestic violence through year-round initiatives and direct assistance to domestic violence programs. This holiday season, Dedicated Financial GBC is matching all donations, up to the first $5,500, made to the Love Life Now Foundation.

“At LTi, we are always looking for new ways to give back and are always looking for different opportunities,” Jeff Van Slyke, CEO and president of LTi, said. “We reach out to our employees and ask for their input on where we should help out when we are doing events like this. YES and LLN were brought to our attention, and I could not think of two better organizations to help out. This time of year is hard for some individuals, and LTi always steps up to make someone’s holidays that much better.”
