Research shows that corporate social responsibility and a strong sense of purpose contribute to increased employee engagement rates. According to Gallup, a company with an engaged workforce sees benefits like: A 17% increase in productivity 💻🚀 21% more profit 📈 41% lower absenteeism 🕺 Invite your employees to make an impact with effective workplace giving and volunteering programs. 3 tactics to re-engage employees in corporate social responsibility: https://lnkd.in/g7Suj8rT

Volunteerism is a significant part of the giving rate but isn’t accessible to people of all abilities. Considering the charitable giving rate in the U.S. has been stuck at 2.5% of GDP for the past 50 years, the barriers to inclusion for those living with disabilities must be addressed by nonprofits who want to make a bigger impact. Enable volunteers by expanding your outreach and marketing materials. 👐👥 Connect with local nonprofits serving the disabilities community, and get them involved with your mission 🤝 Rethink the accessibility of your facilities 💭👷 Read our vision for making volunteerism more accessible: https://lnkd.in/eFwHfM6z

Giving USA Foundation released their annual report on the state of philanthropy, and while there were some bright spots, the overall trendline of the last few years shows few signs of abating. Overall giving to charities came in at $557B in 2023, up 1.9% (though, in real dollars, a decline of 2.1% given the impacts of inflation). Gifts from individuals continued to lag other categories, reinforcing a recent report by the Fundraising Effectiveness Project which noted that 80% of the decline in donor participation can be attributed to the loss of the small donors who gave $500 or less. Increases in giving from corporations and bequests powered much of the nominal growth. Large donors play an increasingly important role, but ultimately electrifying broad participation is key to accelerate giving growth. Bonterra will be sharing some exciting announcements shortly about how we are using insights from our Cybergrants giving and volunteerism platform and those from our EveryAction, Network For Good, and Social Solutions nonprofit platforms to more easily match donors with doers. Solving this matching problem is at the center of our vision to double philanthropic activity over the next decade.

Are your CSR efforts reaching their full potential? At Bonterra, we believe companies can make the biggest impact when they build long-term relationships with nonprofits that match their values.
