Smile, Everyone! It's Time for Your Computer Training

Happy, which also donates 4% of its profits to charity and gives employees a paid day off every month to do volunteer work, offers nonprofits a range of tools and services: It prepares agency workers for certification by the Institute of IT Training so that they can then train homeless and unemployed people. It also offers educational nonprofits free training materials. What's more, Happy lets agencies use its space for free in the evenings and on weekends to train people.

"I have a core belief in the principles that this company promotes -- not the technological principles but the politics that are behind them," says Suzy Cornwell, 33, Happy's operations manager. "We operate on the premise that everyone has a right to be trained."
