Pro bono support
Track and evidence your social impact
Get Involved Coventry makes it easier for you and your employees to find ways to volunteer and for you to track your collective impact.
The first step is to register. You will then be able to create a profile for your organisation.
Once your profile is created and approved, you can add staff as members and create workplace teams. All members of your organisation can search and apply for roles as well as log volunteering hours, all under your organisation umbrella.
All logged volunteering activity can be tracked via your organisation's dashboard, making it easier to monitor and evidence the difference your individual staff members, internal teams, and the organisation as a whole are making in our local community.
Offer your employees meaningful experiences
Nick Conway, Senior Operations Manager at Kier Natural Resources, Nuclear & Networks talks about their team experience at the Coventry-based charity, Feed The Hungry.
Nick Conway, Senior Operations Manager at Kier Natural Resources, Nuclear & Networks talks about their team experience at the Coventry-based charity, Feed The Hungry.
Feed The Hungry's UK projects - such as Coventry Foodbank - meet the needs of families in the Midlands facing food poverty, supporting over 1000 people every week. Globally, the charity also supply emergency disaster relief, and projects that provide food to over 560,000 children in 7 countries.
"We had a great day! The biggest thing for me was the size of the task Feed The Hungry have, the amount of people that rely on this charity was incredible, so many people in Coventry alone and that’s not to mention the overseas projects they do and the rest of the UK as well.
All of the people working for the charity were absolutely fantastic and the amount of volunteers they have was mind blowing, people coming in for the odd hour or two to people coming in all day or more.
It really is mind blowing.
When we left I really did feel like we had helped in a little way but I guess every little helps.
The charity was very thankful and I hope more people get involved in this from the wider business."
