2023 is a year most people are ready to put in what it takes to give out the little they have to the society.
However, many companies are increasingly starting to realize, impactful CSR programs have the potential to do a lot more than just make their company look good or because of the benefits.
In this article, let’s take a look at 5 inspiring CSR activities to do in 2023
Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is something that a lot of companies have taken on in the last few decades as a way to give back to their communities and make it clear that they care about more than just making money.
In CSR, companies aren’t only donating money but also time, energy, and resources to projects benefitting the society and environment.
- Volunteering To People Within your Community
Giving the little you have to your community is one of the best thing to do in 2023. A lot of things have gone down in 2022 and many are hoping to get help from people no matter how small it is.
Volunteering is an activity that will help you connect with your local community in a meaningful way.
It can be food, money, opening a free local restaurant, giving out work machines and many more.
2. Launch Women Empowerment Programs:
Launching women empowerment programs go a long way to helping women in the society. These programs can be designed to help women gain control over their own lives and improve their social, economic, and political status.
With this programs, the women will be able to know their rightful place not only in their home but also in the society at large. It will help them become more independent, confident, and able to make their own decisions and choices.
Ultimately, the goal of these programs is to promote gender equality and create a more equitable society. These programs often focus on providing women with education, training, and access to resources and opportunities that can help them achieve their goals and realize their potential.
3. Partnering with humanitarians / non profit organizations in the community
Humanitarians and non profit organizations are doing their own humanitarian work without much assistance and so they tend to receive help from organizations if being reached out to.
Some of these NGOs do these out of free will and partnering with them will help go a long way and be as an added advantage. Building a relationship with a charity or non-profit that’s related to your business or industry will ensure you’re working towards building a brighter future on a consistent basis. A charity partnership will also empower your staff to do good (and feel good) by getting involved in various fundraising projects.
4. Create Awareness for the physically challenged
Raising awareness of disability is very important.
Some disabilities are classed as invisible or hidden disabilities because you can’t see them. For example, autism. You can’t tell that an Autistic person is disabled just by looking at them, this is why it is called an invisible or hidden disability.
However, creating awareness for such special people will help in so many areas such as creating a special learning environment for them, teaching them some things they are good at and also making them understand what they lack is a gift.
5. Make a difference
It is important to always think of what to do that will be different of what others have done or doing .
Whether you focus on environmental sustainability, social justice, or something else entirely, make sure the program is making a positive impact.
Yes, people wants food, shelter and all but instead of giving them fish, why not teach them how to fish like supporting local startups and SMEs programs.
Make a difference!
