How Can Businesses Align Employee Activism with their Employee Giving and Volunteering Programs?

ONLINE REGISTRATION CLOSES AT MIDNIGHT THURSDAY OCTOBER 18

Join America’s Charities next week, October 23-25th, at 3BL Media’s Brands Taking Stands Forum at MGM National Harbor, near Washington, D.C. where C-suite executives, business leaders, and corporate responsibility and sustainability professionals will convene to share insights about the challenges they face and their response to our new era of corporate activism.

At 2:50 pm on October 24th, and at 1:25 pm on October 25th, America’s Charities president and CEO, Jim Starr, will lead an issue table discussion about real employee activism examples and will share what role CSR programs have in providing employees a platform for activism. Attendees will leave the session with a better understanding how to use employee engagement to align employees around a cause, along with new strategies for leveraging CSR programs for employee activism.

And then at 10:05 am on October 25th, join Jim again as he moderates a discussion between Points of Light’s President and CEO, Natalye Paquin, and Chief Civic Innovation Officer, Jenny Lawson, about the pivotal shift in the role businesses play as leaders of change.
