In the era of hybrid work and global teams, corporate volunteering technology is essential to unlocking volunteering potential.
Communiteer’s Opportunity Board is your tool to activate employees and amplify the collective social impact of your corporate giving program.
Let’s embrace technology to make giving back more accessible, impactful, and aligned with the needs of today’s workforce.
So, why do we need technology?
1. Scalability and Reach: Traditional volunteering efforts often rely on local initiatives and manual coordination, limiting their reach and impact.
2. Adaptive to Changing Work Environments: Corporate volunteering technology can align with internal communication tools, making it easy for remote employees to stay informed and participate in corporate volunteering activities.
3. Employee Engagement: Digital tools offer employees the flexibility to choose opportunities that align with their skills, interests, and schedules. This personalisation ensures that employees are more invested in the causes they support.
4. Inclusivity and Accessibility: Technology opens up volunteering opportunities to a broader range of employees, including those who may not have been able to participate in traditional in-person activities due to physical, time, or location constraints.
5. Data-Driven Impact Measurement: By collecting data on various metrics—such as the number of beneficiaries, the long-term outcomes of initiatives, and employee feedback—organizations can gain valuable insights.
Our Strategy
The design and development process for Communiteer’s corporate volunteering technology was driven by the need to create a user-friendly platform that seamlessly connects corporate volunteers with meaningful opportunities.
The process began with in-depth research to understand the specific needs of corporate volunteering program managers and employees. This was followed by iterative design phases, where user feedback was continuously incorporated to refine the interface, ensuring it was intuitive and easy to navigate.
Throughout the process, emphasis was placed on creating a scalable platform that could grow alongside the increasing demand for corporate volunteering technology solutions.
Here are the outcomes we decided to focus on throughout the process:
For Employee Volunteering
- Increased interest in volunteering overall;
- Higher employee participation in corporate volunteering opportunities;
- Increased self-organisation of employee projects and teams; and
- Greater awareness of aligned community partners and the overall corporate giving program strategy.
For Community Organisations
- Stronger relationships with corporate partners in the long-term;
- Expanded and sustainable sources of volunteering capacity to deliver their mission; and
- Greater variety in the skills and experience within their accessible volunteer pool.
