Growing Ambitions is a ready-made CSR and Volunteering programme

CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY

In challenging economic times organisations still want to make a difference through CSR programmes but perhaps are looking for a 'light touch', easy but impactful activity with no financial commitment.

Some employees may not be occupied 100% of the day - so here is a 'half hour' volunteering activity to make the most of their time.

Microsoft UK's Citizenship Manager, Karina Gibson says: "We have recently added the Growing Ambitions portal to our intranet using their simple white label option so that our employees can sign up to the database directly."
