The Elemental Community Investment Program
What started with a few ad hoc activities grew into ongoing relationships with 30+ local nonprofits – it turned into a program. A program that became a central piece of the culture and the employee experience.
The Elemental Community Investment Program didn’t just get employees out volunteering together. It engaged us, as people, in our community, created bonds within and across teams, and inspired new passions and creative ways of thinking.
Growing pains
The program was successful, but far from easy to operate. It took significant time and effort to figure out what was out there – let alone establish the connections, coordinate the events, and track the impact over time.
All this was done with a mix of scheduling software, emails, and spreadsheets.
