The Challenge
An ESG & CSR Board Member who’s a CSR Program Manager at a medical equipment manufacturer was revamping their gift matching programs and facing questions from leadership like “Should there be a minimum? If so, what would that minimum be?” and “How do other organizations approach this?”
How the ESG & CSR Board Helped
Relevant, topical discussions like this happen in the community every day — and a dozen of the Board Member’s peers in similar positions had already started a conversation around benchmarking their gifting minimums for matching.
The leader was able to jump into the discussion in our online, confidential member forum to find the information she needed.
The Result
The Board Member was able to not only benchmark with the numbers other leaders were sharing, but they also got important insight and context around the individual member’s programs and the connection between program restrictions, removing barriers for employee participation and more.
