Steve Barbarich – International Philanthropist

By Robert Thomson | May 14, 2009

Even the smallest donation can result in a snowball effect, triggering others to act and to help out where needed. The end result is funds that amount to enough to make an impact in order to help victims of natural disasters. One of the many things Steven Barbarich has vowed to do was to use business profits to help out charity efforts and bring needed funds when needed.

Most recent fund raising efforts on the part of Steve Barbarich came when Hurricane Ike hit the Gulf Coast. At that time he dedicated $15.00 from the sale of each Paradise Hot Tub the company sold to the hurricane relief effort. It doesn’t stop there however, as he continuously works with other charities as well, and helps to ensure that the funds are used in an efficient and appropriate manner.

His vision is bringing relief to localities devastated by hurricanes, fires, floods and earthquakes as well as other civil conflicts in a timely manner including terrorist attacks and war. The goal he has in mind is to help as many people as possible.

Steve Barbarich graduated from Harvey Mudd College with a degree in engineering and went on to become an entrepreneur, inventor and author, and he is also the CEO and founder of ChooseDirect.com, the launching pad for several online companies with plans to add other complimentary websites as the company grows.

His company was founded on the principal of providing outstanding customer service to each and every customer and potential customer the company has. This is something that the retail industry has stood by and watched over the last 100 years dwindle away to almost nothing. In a time when self-service is the norm, his companys efforts focus on making the customer number one once again. He refuses to outsource the customer service department, knowing that to ensure that his customer receive the best possible service, it would need to be kept in house, where he can be sure that it remains that way.

In 1995, Steve founded the company IP-R (Inventors Publishing and Research) and grew the company from a simple marketing firm in which an inventor could bring in his or her invention and get help in bringing it to the marketplace, into a full service design and marketing company that also designed packaging and coordinated manufacturing of the products.

So when someone asks you Who is Steve Barbarich? you can answer that he is a man of many talents and has the opportunity to wear many hats. Steve is an entrepreneur, philanthropist, author, and founder and CEO of several successful companies.

So good at his work, ChooseDirect.com has remained a viable company through the economic downturn, and has in fact shown growth throughout.
