#DOITFOROTHERS – Goodwille launches internal CSR & Charity initiative

On Monday 1 October, Goodwille launched its new Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and Charity initiative #DOITFOROTHERS. The aim of the initiative is to raise awareness and funds for Good Causes. We are committed to making a difference in our society and give something back to the communities where we live and work. Doing good is in our DNA (and our name!) and that’s why we deliver a variety of different fundraising opportunities by organising events and making financial contributions to support local and national campaigns and charities.Through our internal CSR group, we raise awareness and funds for those who need it most, whilst having fun along the way. We actively encourage our team to get involved in these activities, to organise their own events and take time to give back to charitable causes.

By raising awareness and money for good causes, we hope to inspire our clients, partners and wider network to also get involved and #doitforothers. Follow Goodwille on Instagram, LinkedIn and Twitter to get the latest information on our upcoming charity events and the opportunities YOU can take part in. You can also read about the next Charity events we are taking part in below.

Good perks for Team Goodwille

To show our commitment to doing good, we have introduced two new charity-related employee perks for Team Goodwille. These perks include:

Matching Donations – For all funds raised for good causes by the team, Goodwille match the money.

Charity Day – each employee gets one extra day’s leave per year to support charities close to their hearts.

Upcoming charity events

We are working to make volunteering easy and want to invite everyone – colleagues, clients and partners – to join us in doing good. To show support for issues and causes close to our hearts, we’re partaking in several charity campaigns this autumn.

September

On 28 September, before the official launch of Goodwille’s CSR initiative, both Goodwille Offices took part in The World Biggest Coffee Morning by hosting coffee morning open to the public to raise money for Macmillan Cancer Support.

October

On 19 October we will Wear it Pink to show our support for those affected by breast cancer. Wear It Pink is a fundraising event for breast cancer research, initiated by the UK’s largest breast cancer research charity Breast Cancer Now.

November

November is dedicated to raising awareness for men’s health issues! Throughout the whole month, we’re growing our Mos to support Movember. Starting with a clean shave on 1 November, we hope that the Good Growth of our facial hair will raise awareness and inspire donations for men’s health. Follow the progress and root for your favourite moustache on our social channels, and please help us raise money for Movember Foundation here!

Between 8-14 November, the campaign Wrap Up London runs at several major London underground stations. Donate old or unwanted coats and help those that can’t afford winter clothes to wrap up and stay warm this winter. Give a coat, warm a heart – help keep vulnerable people warm this winter by donating a coat this November!
