  • Able to attend to house hold activities
  • Save time and money on commuting
  • Improve productivity in their work

The disadvantages from working remotely

  • Difficult time separating work time from leisure time for some
  • Less face to face interaction with employees
  • Staying focus while working in a home environment can be a problem for some

 

People will need to weigh the pros and cons of this type of work lifestyle to see if it is a right fit for them.  For some it is a no brainer and love the freedom it provides.  Others work best with a more traditional work atmosphere

An Intern Recap of Dishcrawl

dishcrawl

College students over the age of 21 have heard of the terms “bar hopping” and “pub crawls” but when does the alcohol stop and the food feed in?

As a college student myself and an intern at Dishcrawl, I understand the frustration of choosing between restaurants when you are with a large group of friends and can’t decide where to go. Now, imagine the concept of pub crawl meets food and what do you get…Dishcrawl!

Dishcrawl takes this idea and enhances it into an unforgettable experience of planning out your night with trips to four different restaurants with flavors that will blow your mind.

Dishcrawl is all about community connection and reaching out to the hidden food treasures of your cities to give people a chance to rediscover the city they live in and love. On the night of the event you will find yourself beginning at one restaurant and before you know it you are on your feet walking to the next get food discovery!

That’s the beauty of Dishcrawl; our city ambassadors plan the night out to the last detail finding restaurants within walking distance so you spend more time eating and enjoying your night rather than trying to figure out where you will go next. As a college student these events could not be more perfect for a night out on the town with your girl or guys, celebrations, impressing your boss or company, and just getting out there to discover eateries to bring the rest of your friends and family too later on.

Join the team with us!

Attention Non-Profits: We Want to Help You Fundraise…

DISHCRAWL FOR NON PROFITS LOGO

Hello Everyone!  My name is Tracy and I’m the Founder & CEO of Dishcrawl.

I’m SO happy to announce our next company goal… Dishcrawl for Non-Profits!

Here at Dishcrawl, we’ve found a constant theme that keeps coming up… we love to help people.  Our passion lies deep within the communities, and we truly want to build an organization that helps everyone around us.

Our goal in 2013 is to helping raise $1 million dollars for non-profits all across the North America in 2013.  Think we can do it?

That being said, help us help you and your community.  Spread the word!

As of this blog post, across cities in North America, any non-profit can use our events (like Brew Benefit, Neighborfood, and others) as a way to fundraise for their organization!  Between $5-10 goes back to the non-profit from every campaign.

I’M A NON-PROFIT, HOW DO I PARTICIPATE?

Request the opportunity to be a beneficiary by emailing your local ambassador.  Their email can be found on any community page.  If you can’t find the email, simply email hi@dishcrawl.com with the request.  The COOLEST thing about Dishcrawl events- there is NO LIMIT to non-profits that can participate!  Whether it’s 100 organization or 10 organizations, every single event can handle as many organizations that would like to fundraise as possible!

Once your request is approved, you’ll receive a bundle of items and some tips on how to spread the word to your community!

BENEFITS AND HOW TO THINK OF DISHCRAWL AS A FUNDRAISING PLATFORM

I sit on the board of a non-profit (Arts Council Silicon Valley) and know how hard it is to raise money.  It takes time and energy to do outreach, find funders, and achieve your organization’s vision.

Using Dishcrawl as a platform allows you and everyone in your network easily share an event folks are probably going to anyways.  Except, now they get to give back to your charity in a big way.  It’s easy to gather a big group of friends to hang out and go eat or drink together, especially with a cool concept!

HAVE FUN

My hope is that these events and this new way to fundraise helps re-ignite the passion an energy within your own fundraising circles- and allows you to extend your reach to folks in your network and theirs.  Drinking and eating for a cause just ain’t a bad thang. :)

$1 million dollars donated in 2013… help us achieve our goal of being an amazing company that gives back in a big way.

Founder & CEO
