At The Functionary, we believe in taking meaningful action to make a positive impact on the world around us, guided by our fundamental values of environmental stewardship, diversity and inclusion, community engagement, humanitarian aid, and animal welfare.
Community Outreach
We are passionate about strengthening communities through active engagement and support. From volunteering to special donation initiatives, our efforts are focused on creating a positive and lasting impact. Through these actions, we contribute to the strength and well-being of our communities.
Volunteering at a Children’s Foundation in Medellin, Colombia
We organize volunteering activities with the local foundation, Sembrando Paz y Esperanza, aiming to create a positive impact in the Comuna 13 neighborhood of Medellín. During our most recent visit, we shared our experiences and aspirations, gifted uniforms to the foundation’s soccer team, and organized a raffle. It was a rewarding experience that underscored the power of community unity.
Environmental Stewardship
We understand the importance of protecting our planet for future generations. That’s why we‘re committed to sustainable practices that minimize our ecological footprint. Whether it’s reducing waste in our offices or supporting environmental conservation projects, we believe every action counts towards making a difference.

Making a Difference in Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil:
Following the devastating floods in the region in May 2024, our team based in Brazil took immediate action to assist those affected. We provided donations to help people who lost their homes and rallied support for relief efforts. Our commitment to aiding our neighbors in times of need knows no boundaries.
Humanitarian Aid
We love animals and we believe that they should be cared for as they deserve.
In Medellín, Colombia, we partnered with the animal shelter Refugio Animal Huella Vital to support their incredible work with abandoned and injured animals. Our own Ben Cox, English teacher and avid animal lover, personally visited the shelter to deliver much-needed dog and cat food, embodying our belief in hands-on support and the importance of animal welfare.
