Is your business involved in any community projects? National Tree Week starts on November 27th Nov but its not just about planting trees—it’s about making a lasting contribution to the environment and connecting with the communities we’re part of. For businesses, it’s a perfect opportunity to lead by example, foster teamwork, and demonstrate values that resonate with customers. Here are a few ways your business can get involved: - Organize a Tree Planting Day: Invite your team or customers to join you in planting trees in your local area. It’s a hands-on way to make a difference while creating memorable experiences. - Sponsor a Tree-Planting Initiative: Partner with a local council, charity, or school to provide resources or funding for tree planting in your community. Spread Awareness: Use your platforms to share the importance of trees and sustainability. You could even highlight the steps your business is taking toward environmental responsibility. - Make It a Team-Building Activity: Strengthen your team’s connection while contributing to a good cause by volunteering together. Why does it matter for your business? Participating in community projects like National Tree Week isn’t just good for the environment—it’s great for your brand. Customers are increasingly drawn to businesses that actively support sustainability and give back. By sharing your involvement, you’re showing your values in action and creating authentic marketing content that resonates with your audience. If you have an idea for a community project but need assistance in getting it up and running, the planning and organization, then lets have a chat - hello@angelabrown.uk #NationalTreeWeek #CommunityImpact #Sustainability #BusinessForGood #TeamBuilding #marketing #yourbrand #YourBusiness #communityprojects #getinvolved

Here's something I am very proud of: I've donated over $10,000 worth of work in the last two months to environmental nonprofits. This work included project management, creative asset production, and fundraising campaign management. How'd I do this? Through Catchafire via Patagonia. Catchafire is a platform that connects nonprofits with volunteers; after looking for work for 9+ months in this dismal market, all while directing a short film, I *needed* to find other ways to give back to the world, and to stop ranting about AI on LinkedIn. So I signed up on Catchafire, and connected with nonprofits doing equity, conservation, and sustainability work across the world. I highly recommend this path to anyone looking to give back. In the words of Noam Chomsky: “If you assume that there is no hope, you guarantee that there will be no hope. If you assume that there is an instinct for freedom, that there are opportunities to change things, then there is a possibility that you can contribute to making a better world.” There are some volunteers who have given 10x what I have. Our world needs us. Consider giving back. https://lnkd.in/g4HS-RQc

When you think of 'corporate volunteering', what comes to mind?...Painting a fence with your team? Planting a tree in a field? Running another bake sale in the office? But corporate volunteering doesn't have to be so, well, corporate... We're all about making volunteering fun and exciting, so here are some (less dull) alternatives to the employee volunteering you might be used to: 🌊 Regenerating coral reefs through eco-burials You read that correctly! Forget tree planting and get stuck into marketing, strategy, and design projects for a charity helping to bring new life to marine ecosystems by building artificial reef structures from human ashes! 🗺️ Filling out maps of crisis-prone areas around the world Only have 10-20 minutes to spare in your busy schedule, but would still love to volunteer? We've got you covered! We have 100s of quick 'at home' volunteering projects on the platform like this one helping to put the world's vulnerable communities on the map. In just 20 minutes you can contribute to the reconstruction of war-stricken areas, or help in the delivery of aid to victims of natural disasters! ♻️ Turning excess waste into green power Make your impact global, and help in the fight against climate change by volunteering with a nonprofit creating global power from waste, repurposing all types of non-recyclable waste to create green power. 🐐 Giving nomadic farmers a voice in the fashion industry Millions of herding families (50% of Mongolia's population) rely on cashmere as their main source of income; income threatened by climate change and pasture degradation. With remote volunteering, your team can help to lift up their voices and positively influence the sustainable fashion industry by creating articles centered on the herder's perspective. This is just a few of the 1000s of remote and in-person volunteering projects available to your team if you know where to find them 👀 ⭐️ If you're looking for a way to engage your team AND give back as a business, then why not book in a demo today - https://lnkd.in/eB5Mav_A #Volunteering | #SocialImpact | #TechForGood | #Charity | #CSR | #Culture | #EmployeeExperience

For retailers, supporting a community cause is not just a responsibility—it’s an opportunity to create meaningful connections with the people we serve and a way to help our team further feel their work is making an impact. Choosing the right cause can feel like a big decision, but there are a few key considerations that can help guide you in the right direction. ⭐ Align with Your Brand Values: Choose a cause that reflects the core values of your business. If sustainability is central to your brand, consider environmental organizations. 🌟 Listen to Your Community: Pay attention to the causes that resonate with your customers and employees. Supporting a cause that’s important to them fosters loyalty and engagement. ⭐ Long-term Impact: Look for causes where your support can make a tangible, lasting difference. Consider whether your business can provide more than just financial support—such as skills, products, or volunteering. #CommunitySupport #RetailLeadership #CorporateResponsibility #BusinessAndPhilanthropy
