Engaging Employees in Corporate Philanthropy Plans (WizeHive)

Today, corporate grantmakers are trying to solve the puzzle of engaging employees in their organization’s philanthropy program while also supporting their workforce’s diverse interests and causes. Certainly, establishing workplace giving and volunteering programs can help your organization have an even deeper social impact, but how do you also honor individual interests and truly engage employees with the organization, each other, and the community?

Tune in to hear directly from an organization that grappled with the same questions and is now running an integrated corporate philanthropy and workplace giving and volunteering program. UWorld is a global leader in test preparation with a strong commitment to corporate social responsibility and employee engagement. Their program director, Jackie Johnson, shared about their experience and lessons learned.

Takeaways:

• How to shape your workplace giving program to further corporate philanthropy AND employee interests
• Ways to connect employees to volunteer opportunities with your grant recipients
• What to consider when determining program rules and regulations
• How to leverage payroll giving, employer matching, and volunteer time off to increase engagement

This event was sponsored and presented by WizeHive.
