Taking advantage of the momentum from Black Friday and Cyber Monday, #GivingTuesday marks the beginning of the charitable season and encourages people to give to organizations, charities and initiatives that are making a difference.
Salesforce.org, the non-profit subsidiary of Salesforce, is a prime example of taking leadership in giving back to its communities. Through a partnership with United Way, Salesforce.org has launched Philanthropy Cloud, which allows employees to record all of their charitable work and connect with the causes they care about.
Here are a few other Salesforce.org initiatives related to the spirit of #GivingTuesday:
1-1-1 Model
Salesforce founded the 1-1-1 Philanthropic Model, which encourages corporations to pledge 1 percent of their employee time, products and equity to support nonprofits around the world. Since its founding, Salesforce has:
- Given more than 3.2 million hours of community service
- Donated more than $230-million in grants
- Provided product donations for more than 37,000 nonprofits and higher education institutions, including Furniture Bank, an organization that donates furniture to families in need.
Employee-Inspired Volunteering
Salesforce employees get seven paid days of Volunteer Time Off (VTO) each year.
- From volunteering at a school to building houses in remote parts of the world, Salesforce employees are encouraged to use their VTO to make the world a better place in whatever way they choose.
