And also, to have FUN!

Solution
Develop an annual internal CSR campaign that motivates and engages employees to participate and donate. Each year BTI works to outdo the many amazing themes created in the past, many of which have won the title of “Outstanding Employee Campaign” award. Campaign elements typically include a variety of cleverly themed promotional materials to help generate buzz within the Whirlpool office, PowerPoint templates for campaign planning and communication to encourage involvement, and the main focal point—an interactive pledge tracker to keep the campaign goals top of mind.
