Make your corporate giving count with the Corporate dashboard insights
Impact on business?
The dashboard gives insights into top causes that your employees are passionate about and helps you track how engaged employees are with the company’s corporate giving initiatives. On a macro level, the dashboard also tracks the company’s corporate giving journey in terms of donations, funds raised and volunteer hours clocked. Pie charts and time lines are a plus for reporting purposes.
Ideas?
- Create campaigns that resonate with causes employees are interested in for better planning & engagement in volunteer opportunities.
- Set benchmarks for corporate giving and track if those goals are met over time.
- Get inspired by other similar sized companies’ corporate giving efforts
I want… to mobilise employees through team building activities.

Keeping it Private Mode
Impact on business?
The private mode allows for the creation of internal campaigns such as socially-driven team bonding activities to mobilise employees, increase employee engagement and forge deeper bonds among employees.
Every employee who participates in corporate community engagement activities adds $2400 value to the company. This is a result of decreased turnover and increased employee engagement.

Inter-department “games”.
- A company-wide sports day is common but have you heard of a company-wide giving-back day? Pit various departments against each other in support of a charity of choice – raise as much money or volunteer hours for their chosen cause within a set time period to win the title of “Department with the biggest heart”.
Intra-department bonding activities.
- Join a volunteer opportunity with your colleagues – gets team members out of the office and engages them in a socially impactful activity.
