Skills-based volunteerism is a corporate strategy where volunteers use their professional skills to help nonprofits through consulting projects, executive mentoring, or long-term assignments. It benefits companies by developing employee skills, engaging workers, and building community relationships. Volunteers gain experience applying their skills in a new setting. Nonprofits receive high-impact assistance addressing strategic challenges. An effective program aligns with a company's goals, employees' skills, and community needs through tailored projects. Fidelity Investments partners with Common Impact to implement skills-based volunteering, developing talent and investing over $3 million in communities.
Conducted by the Boston College Center for Corporate Citizenship this CSR research study, explores how companies are investing in corporate citizenship, corporate giving and employee volunteering and how these community involvement efforts connect to overall business.
The Future of NGO Collaboration: Partnership to Convening. Presentation by Professor John Hailey, Cass Business School, City University London, to ACORD Learning Forum in Nairobi, Kenya, 12 October 2016
According to Gallup, engaged employees take on average 2.7 sick days per year, while disengaged employees take 6.2. That’s 3.5 days lost per employee per year as a direct result of disengagement. If your company has 100 disengaged employees, you’re losing 350 days of work per year – that’s almost a year in total! Now that’s a reason to come and join our webinar to understand how People First can support engagement with your employees.

Scale Up Milwaukee is an action project focused on developing the entrepreneurial capacity in Milwaukee by bringing together the policies, structures, programs and climate that foster entrepreneurship.
Scale Up Milwaukee is based on a model developed by Daniel Isenberg, founding executive director of the Babson Entrepreneurship Ecosystem Projects. Isenberg has worked with entrepreneurship ecosystems abroad, including in Colombia, Brazil and Denmark, fostering policies, structures and cultures that stimulate long-term economic growth, development and prosperity through programs and workshops.
Milwaukee is the first community in the U.S. to develop an entrepreneurship program based on this model. The initiative is also backed by Governor Scott Walker and Mayor Tom Barrett as part of a bipartisan effort to grow the economy by stimulating high-growth ventures and encouraging job creation.
The long-term strategy for Scale Up Milwaukee is to create an integrated effort to simultaneously impact six domains of the entrepreneurial ecosystem in Milwaukee: Culture, Policy and Leadership, Finance, Human Capital, Markets, and Supports.

Designing meaningful, mission-driven virtual volunteer opportunities, and managing remote volunteers can be challenging. How do you create work than can be done independently, and still supervise, evaluate, or recognize the work of a volunteer you never meet face to face? The good news is that now, with an ever growing set of online tools, building an online community and connecting with someone across miles (or continents) is easier. In this webinar we will discuss best practices for creating those opportunities and developing meaningful relationships with remote volunteers, including building and empowering remote teams, managing projects by letting go but not checking out, and creating a two-way communication plan to share the work of remote volunteers with the organization and share what's happening at the organization with remote volunteers.

What’s ethics got to do with this? Ethics and Decision Making in Volunteer En...VolunteerMatch

When you’re in this type of dilemma how do you intervene or lead? In this highly interactive workshop we’ll explore how ethics guide the work we do leading and engaging volunteers, and we’ll practice using ethical decision making.

In this engaging session we’ll practice effective and creative training delivery methods. Attendees will leave with a sample curriculum and a plan to evaluate their current volunteer training.
How to boost employee engagement with the volunteer match networkVolunteerMatch
Many companies invest a lot of time in researching nonprofits and curating one-off volunteer opportunities for their employees. Yet research shows that one-third of employees won’t actually give through their workplace because they’re not able to choose the causes that matter to them.
What if there were an easy way to connect employees with high-quality volunteer experiences that are meaningful to them?
There is. The VolunteerMatch Network is a consolidation of vetted, real-time nonprofit volunteer needs, all in one place. It can be easily integrated into your existing corporate giving platform in a way that’s tailored to your company’s goals and preferences.
On Tuesday, May 29, 2018 at 2pm ET/11am PT webinar attendees got a walkthrough of:
-Why it’s important to give your employees choice in your volunteer program
-How to balance employee choice with company-sponsored cause areas
-How the VolunteerMatch Network connects employees with causes that are meaningful to them
-How VolunteerMatch’s custom integrations can serve the interests of both your company and its individual employees, while saving you time and money.
So many volunteer managers depend on groups of volunteers to meet the needs of their programs. Different types of groups can come with their own challenges.
We’ll discuss ideas for working with corporate groups, youth groups, and other groups. Effective practices for engagement, ideas for diversifying the work and commitment level of volunteer groups, the importance of creating opportunities with measurable impacts, and communicating those impacts will be discussed.

Nonprofit Insights: Stories & Solutions Shaping the Future of Volunteer Scree...VolunteerMatch
It’s undeniable: vetting volunteers is essential in securing your nonprofit’s work.
The way in which you vet volunteers is equally as important. It could make all the difference as to whether a volunteer is mistakenly screened or not. It’s one reason why we’re sharing positive volunteer screening experiences and other stories of how crises happened or were averted from peers in the field.
You’ve just learned about technology options for your nonprofit, and you think, “Great, I’m so excited to get started! But wait—how can we start implementing within our current resources?” Engaging pro bono volunteers might be the right way to go!
Engaging pro bono volunteers for your technology needs will not only allow you to create new ways to deliver on your mission, but it will help broaden your volunteer options as well (in a way that many, many corporate volunteer programs are looking for!).
This session will take you through the entire process of finding just the right volunteer or group of volunteers, including:
How to create an effective job description and project timeline geared toward technology volunteers
Best practices in recruiting pro bono volunteers with specialized skill sets
How to market your new volunteer roles
How to scale your program to accommodate companies seeking pro bono opportunities for their employees
How to align your staff or volunteer structure to support pro bono volunteers
Nonprofit Insights: How Design Thinking Helps You Increase Impact And InnovationVolunteerMatch
Nonprofit organizations provide some of the most basic and essential services to those who need them most: clean water, food, shelter, etc. However, despite often Herculean efforts, many organizations lack resources and find themselves understaffed and underfunded. For organizations to survive, thrive, and fulfill their missions, the key is constant innovation.
During this free webinar, we’ll discuss how innovative nonprofits (e.g. American Red Cross, GRID Alternative, buildOn, etc.) utilize Customer Centric Design Thinking — a methodology developed at the Institute of Design at Stanford — to think outside-the-box and find ways to leverage existing resources, volunteers, staff, and social media presence to increase impact. We’ll then discuss methods for using design thinking to increase engagement, awareness, volunteerism, and fundraising at your organization.
This webinar will be lead by Ryall Carroll, Ph.D. Marketing and Co-Founder of raiserve.org.

At its core, generative artificial intelligence relies on the concept of generative models, which serve as engines that churn out entirely new data resembling their training data. It is like a sculptor who has studied so many forms found in nature and then uses this knowledge to create sculptures from his imagination that have never been seen before anywhere else. If taken to cyberspace, gans work almost the same way.

Sustainability has become an increasingly critical topic as the world recognizes the need to protect our planet and its resources for future generations. Sustainability means meeting our current needs without compromising the ability of future generations to meet theirs.

Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

The Challenge We Are
Addressing

Low quality K-12 education =
Low financial literacy
Low financial literacy leads to…

Editor's Notes
Tell personal story
Not only does it deliver value to each sector, but it creates efficiencies as wellIn 2011, 64.3 million Americans (26.8 percent of the adult population) gave 7.9 billion hours of volunteer service worth $171 billion.*Imagine what the value would be if those were all skills-based hours?
The state of financial literacy in the United States continues to be grim with comprehension of basic financial principles at alarmingly low rates. Research shows:Only 27% of young adults know basic financial concepts such as interest rates, inflation and risk diversification.Young people that experience low K-12 education quality display low levels of financial literacy.1Households or individuals who are less financially literate have been found to be more likely to take payday loans, pay only the minimum balance on a credit card, take on high-cost mortgages, have higher debt levels and be delinquent on debt. The bottom line? People with inadequate education and low levels of financial literacy tend to be less financially secure, less able to make financial decisions, less prepared to take care of personal and family responsibilities, and more vulnerable to financial issues – in an economic environment that is more uncertain and complex.As Ron O’Hanley said to the U.S. Chamber of Commerce: “We need to help people not just become more financially literate but turn that knowledge into positive financial behaviors. We need to provide them with the knowledge and tools they need to make informed decisions about saving and investing for success. We should all be doing everything we can to expand, promote and perhaps require financial education in the workplace.”And that’s where Fidelity Cares is focused….1 Lusardi, Annamaria, Mitchell, Olivia S. and Curto, Vilsa, Financial Literacy Among the Young (August 2009). Michigan Retirement Research Center 2 Gale, William G. and Ruth Levine. October 2010. “Financial Literacy: What Works? How Could It Be More Effective?” Brookings Institution
Core Education – Through a variety of programs conducted throughout the country, Fidelity is helping students develop the necessary skills, knowledge and experience, receive needed books and school supplies, and thrive in renovated classrooms and schools. Fidelity employees also help mentor students and facilitate apprenticeships paving the way for college and career options. Typical programs:School renovations, supplies, booksMentoring and teachingSTEM programs and technology in schoolsPromoting career awarenessFinancial Education – Fidelity Cares® creates opportunities for students to learn personal finance basics, such as managing spending and saving, through in-classroom discussions led by our employees and online self-paced exercises. This is enhanced by hands-on simulation activities and interactive investment games. Students and families are also able to explore ways to finance college or training. In 2012 more than 8500 employees contributed 55,000 volunteer hours to education programs in 14 communities around the country!
“The project expanded my internal network at Fidelity. It gave me access to senior leaders that I wouldn’t have otherwise had. And I now have a cohort of former team mates that I can call if I need to solve a business challenge.”
