GOOD CORPORATE CITIZENSHIP

Many companies include in their Mission Statement the crucial component of social responsibility, in terms of giving back to the community in which they are located through employee volunteer programs.

Volunteer West Island welcomes volunteers from all walks of life and areas of expertise and is fortunate to have a number of dedicated corporate partners who contribute their time and talents to making a difference in our community.

HOW COMPANIES BENEFIT
Research findings show that, along with increased company visibility in the community and recognition as a good corporate citizen, group volunteer work results in growth of teambuilding, job satisfaction, and employee retention. In addition, there is the knowledge that your company has made a difference in your community!
