Help a friend master their IT and help a child escape poverty. One referral does both.

For every referral that becomes a client, we will donate 7% of the professional service fees collected during their first 12 months (excluding pass‑through expenses such as hardware, software, and cloud). 

When a typical 25-user organization chooses Concierge CIO as its IT partner, your referral fully sponsors a child and their family through primary education. As the originator of the sponsorship, you will receive updates about the child throughout the duration of the sponsorship.

Our charity of choice, one our own families also support, is Unbound.org. You may download their press fact sheet here or read more about them below. Unbound’s mission is to equip developing world children and their families with the skills and stability needed to break the cycle of poverty within their specific economic context. Feel free to choose another charity if you prefer.

This is the most impactful referral you’ll ever make. Refer as many friends as you'd like. They may not need our services today, but they may know someone who does, and they might need us in the future.

Refer another friend.

Program Terms & Conditions

To keep the program fair and sustainable, the following conditions apply:

Definition of Qualifying Revenue: The 7% donation is calculated based on the net service fees actually invoiced and collected from the referred client during 12 months of engagement through orders placed in this site.

Exclusions: "pass-through" costs are excluded. This includes third-party software licenses (e.g., Microsoft 365, AWS), hardware purchases, or taxes.

Eligible Referrals: A referral is valid if the organization is a new contact for Concierge CIO Partners LLC, and is not currently in our active sales pipeline.

Donation Timing: Donation disbursements begin once the referred client has completed 90 consecutive days of active, paid service. After this threshold is met, donations are made on an ongoing basis until the full 12‑month period is complete. No cash equivalents or other incentives are provided.

Transparency & Recognition: Referrers will receive confirmation of the successful sponsorship(s) and ongoing updates from Unbound (or the charity of choice if this is a service they provide). Unbound will assign the child (or children) to you as their sponsor of record and disburse the funds gradually over the coming years. You’ll receive letters, photos, and updates directly from your sponsored friend(s).”

No Self-Referrals: To maintain the spirit of the "GiveBack" initiative, referrals for your own organization, or entities where you hold a majority ownership stake, are not eligible for this specific program.

Charity Selection: While Unbound.org is our preferred partner due to their 91% efficiency rating and reputation, you may designate any 501(c)(3) nonprofit or equivalent registered charity to receive the contribution.

Limits: There's no cap on the number of referrals you can make, but each must meet the criteria independently. We reserve the right to limit or disqualify referrals suspected of fraud, spam, inappropriateness, or self-referral.

Changes and Termination: We may modify or end the program at any time, but qualified referrals submitted before changes will be honored.

Privacy: All information shared will be used solely for this program and in compliance with our privacy policy.

The founder of Concierge CIO Partners LLC, along with all current IT professionals and developers at the time this document was written, has pledged to conduct their work and relationships in the company, with clients, and with all those they serve, in alignment with the Instruments of Good Works from Chapter 4 of The Rule of St. Benedict (hereafter, “The Rule”). This ethical framework has guided diverse communities for more than 1,500 years and has influenced several civil legal traditions dating back to the era of Charlemagne.

No one is required to follow The Rule, to know The Rule, or to think that The Rule is a good idea. The founder believes that those who choose to live by its principles tend to lead happier and more productive lives, but individuals are free to dispute or ignore that advice if they wish.

What is binding is the commitment made by the founder and by all current partners and developers. They pledge to uphold the spirit of The Rule to the best of their ability. They regard it as a promise, a covenant, made to every client concerning the standards of conduct expected of all Concierge CIO partners. This is a one way promise. In simple terms: “We will treat you according to these principles, regardless of how you treat us.”
