6 Steps to a Transformative Employee Volunteering Program
Employee volunteering programs today face a paradox:
77% of employees say company-sponsored volunteering is essential to their well-being;
89% of employers offer corporate volunteer programs, and yet
only 17% participate.
What gives?Too often, companies treat their volunteer programs as a one-off “box to check” in a larger corporate giving agenda. But it doesn’t have to be.Building an effective employee volunteering program is about meeting employees where they are, eliminating all the barriers that prevent them from getting involved, and creating a framework for thoughtful dialogue.Join this session led by experts at the social impact platform Submittable to learn how to build (or reshape) your program to make space for transformation.
