Manage episode 474502574 series 3608240
Jenny McColloch, VP, sustainability and community impact, discusses the program’s positive effect on communities, colleagues and the company.
• Our Volunteer Challenge Grant and Matching Gifts programs underscore our commitment to the communities we serve, by encouraging colleagues to donate their time and by financially supporting the nonprofits they love.
• “Our colleagues volunteer at nonprofits of all shapes, sizes and focus areas around the country,” Jenny says. “And for a lot of these organizations, the hours and in-kind support they get from volunteers are a huge part of how they deliver their programs and services.”
• Jenny encourages her fellow leaders to support the colleagues on their teams who volunteer, and she points out how studies show volunteering increases employee engagement and retention.
