Corporate Volunteering Program - Bridge for Billions

Your workforce is looking for purpose

Ensure your corporate volunteering initiatives are connecting your employees values, interests and&nbspgrowth.

Provide more opportunities for purpose in their day-to-day work

The truth is that doing good has been good for business for a while but 2020 truly accelerated the conversation. Nowadays not only your consumers are expecting your business goals to match the welfare of society but your employees are in it too.

Social movements in 2020 plus the COVID-19 crisis caused a paradigm shift and more people to wonder how their day to day activities connect with their purpose and values… and they’re expecting organizations like yours to help them figure it out.

By connecting your employees to entrepreneurs developing solutions to the most pressing social issues of today and in sectors of their own interest you’ll not only guarantee growth, loyalty and social awareness but you’ll also be generating decent job opportunities and innovation in communities where it’s most needed.

An entrepreneurship program that employees want to be a part of

Create a program to tackle the social cause your organization is already working on or in the sector of your preference. Connect different areas, seniority levels or offices within your organization.

We will train your employees in the latest entrepreneurial methodologies and guide them every step of the way as they become mentors to an early-stage founder of their choosing.

Employees get to connect and work one-to-one with the project that interests them the most or work in the specific social cause they feel passionate about.

"This mentoring program gave me a chance to really think outside of the box and engage skills that I might not otherwise use in my regular day-to-day activities. I also learned a great deal from my mentee and we helped each other look at processes and topics in a way that we might not have initially considered — the program really fosters critical thinking for the both the mentor and the mentee. Overall, this has been an incredibly positive experience and a great opportunity to help an individual looking to make a positive impact on the world."

1 Needs Assessment

Count on our expertise running entrepreneurship programs in 147 countries and across all sectors to understand how to reach your organization’s objectives. Let’s define the type of entrepreneur or project you want to support based on your organization's purpose, the requirements of the employees that will participate and timeline.

2 Program Kickoff

After we align on the pillars of your entrepreneurship program, your assigned Program Manager is ready to kick-off. In collaboration with Marketing we will develop communication materials to find the entrepreneurs for your program. When your employees have selected the entrepreneur they want to work with, we’ll onboard everyone into the program and walk them through the methodology and the incubation platform.

3 Implementation Support

We manage all aspects of the program implementation with you, from launch and scouting of participants to facilitation, incubation support and impact reporting. Our incubation platform comes equipped with the content, methodology and technology to make the program easy-to-manage and a complete success but we keep it flexible in order to adapt to your employees needs.

4 Closing and Evaluation

After entrepreneurs have validated and built strong businesses and meaningful relationships through their weekly one-to-one sessions and training with your employees, we can host a closing session to celebrate the achievements and reflect on the experience. You’ll get a complete report with the growth of your employees throughout the program in areas such as communication, leadership, social awareness and much more.
