The document describes a new initiative called Sponsor A Volunteer Engagement Program (SAVE) launched by AIESEC in USM. SAVE aims to help NGOs gain access to AIESEC's global talent pool of volunteers and help companies run corporate social responsibility programs. It will do this by having development trainees from AIESEC work with selected NGOs, with their placements sponsored by companies. This benefits both NGOs, who can receive volunteers at no cost, and companies, who can participate in CSR without developing new programs themselves. The key aspects of SAVE are described, including how NGOs and companies can become involved as volunteer engagers and sponsors.

2. Sponsor A Volunteer Program (SAVE) is the latest initiative by Incoming Exchange Department (DT/ET) of LC USM SAVE’s objective is to help NGO to gain access to AIESEC’s global talent and help Companies to run Corporate Social Responsibility programs at the same time

3. Motivation of SAVE ~ the need to work with NGOs~ Most NGO in Malaysia has a good organization background and wants to recruit international volunteers to work. However, recruiting internationals require a lot of financial support

4. Motivation of SAVE ~Tapping into the Corporate Social Responsibility Market~ Corporate Sectors in Malaysia are interested to run CSR programs. The only way holding them back is the right channel to do it. Coming up with a specialized CSR program requires a lot of resources which includes Human Resource. Its also very risky to run CSR programs on their own platform as its not related to their core business.

5. AIESEC in USM realises the potential of the NGO and CSR Market Hence SAVE is developed to counter all the threat and capitalized on all the opportunites that NGO and CSR can offer!

6. Product Development For NGOs , Development Trainees of AIESEC will work with them for no charge at all This will enable AIESEC to have access on their ongoing projects, syllabus and expertise which usually takes us months of research through PBOXes
