As we transition from the hustle and bustle of Black Friday, we are excited to celebrate Small Business Saturday on November 30th. This day is a fantastic opportunity to support local businesses and recognize the unique value they bring to our communities. At BlackboxMyCar, we are incredibly grateful for the support we've received over the past 12 years, and we want to take this moment to express our heartfelt thanks to our customers.
The story of BlackboxMyCar began in 2012, born out of a personal crisis experienced by our CEO, Alex. His family was involved in a car accident, and the absence of video evidence made the legal process unnecessarily lengthy and stressful. This incident underscored the critical need for dashcams, leading to the creation of our company. Despite the challenges of entering a market dominated by large manufacturers, our dedication to superior customer service and a better shopping experience has set us apart.
We take immense pride in what we have achieved as a small business. Every customer who walks through our doors or visits our website is valued, and your patronage is what keeps us going. Unlike larger competitors, we offer personalized services that you won't find elsewhere. Our commitment to providing the best shopping experience is unwavering, and we are always here to support you.
To show our gratitude for your loyalty, we are excited to link our Black Friday success to our exclusive rewards program. This program is our way of thanking you for your continued support and engagement. By participating, you not only enjoy exclusive benefits but also help us give back to the community.
Through our BlackboxMyCar Cares initiative, we have been able to support various community organizations, including frontline heroes, the Greater Vancouver Food Bank, B.C. Children's Hospital, and the Regional Animal Protection Society. Your support makes these contributions possible, and we are committed to continuing these efforts.
While everyone was encouraged to stay at home during the peak of the pandemic, our frontliners and health workers faced the daily challenges of traveling to serve, prevent, and cure patients. They were fighters, and it inspired our CEO Alex Jang, in collaboration with Thinkware North America, to host a $10,000 Dash Cam Giveaway, with the goal of sending 50 Thinkware F200 PRO dash cams to 50 frontline heroes across Canada and the United States - from doctors, nurses, drivers, cashiers, IT workers to warehouse workers.
A little kindness goes a long way, and this is what we experienced with the Greater Vancouver Food Bank (GFVB). The GFVB community employs a fleet of refrigerated trucks and delivery vehicles to be able to transport food and essentials to over 8,500 individuals and families across Vancouver, Burnaby, New Westminster, and the North Shore.
To ensure that they get to their destination secured and protected, BlackboxMyCar offered a $10,000 dash cam donation which was highly supported by BBMC customers as well.
One of the institutions that has been witnessing and working day and night to defeat the Big C is BC Children’s Hospital Foundation. In its 36th Annual Crystal Gala, BlackboxMyCar supported BCCHF with a $10,000 Dash Cam Giveaway through the participation of Nextbase and Thinkcar Diagnostics. Because of BCCHF and its partners including BlackboxMyCar, the event has raised over $4.52M and counting for life-saving oncology research and treatment for kids and families with hard-to-cure cancers.
As much as we love people, we love our furbabies too! This inspired us to get in touch with the Regional Animal Protection Society (RAPS), a registered charity that operates the RAPS Cat Sanctuary, the RAPS Adoption & Education Centres, and the full-service RAPS Animal Hospital. For this project, BlackboxMyCar donated a Thinkware U1000 4K UHD Dash Cam and a BlackboxMyCar PowerCell 8 Battery Pack to keep their vehicle protected while transporting animals for veterinary care and emergencies.
As we celebrate Small Business Saturday, we want to thank you for choosing BlackboxMyCar and for supporting small businesses. Your support makes a significant difference, and we look forward to serving you for many more years to come.
Thank you for being a part of our journey and for helping us make a positive impact in our community.
