Looking for corporate volunteer opportunities in Atlanta? Many companies want to give back through service projects but don’t know where to start.

But starting your company volunteer project is easier than you think! Here’s how to get started at Atlanta Mission. 
 

Why Corporate Volunteering Matters in Atlanta 

Roughly 3,000 people are experiencing homelessness on any given night in Atlanta. Behind that number are names, stories, and people who need hope more than anything. 

And companies are uniquely positioned to offer this hope. 

Corporate service projects make a social impact, of course, but they also unite your team and build a deeper connection between your business and your city.  

Studies show that purpose-driven companies enjoy increased employee satisfaction and retention. According to a study done by Benevity, “Companies see a 52% lower turnover among newer employees when they participate in purpose programs.” That means that helping nonprofits also helps you! 

Top Benefits of Service Projects for Companies

Host a booth at our Next Steps Job Fair to get the chance to network with and hire our clients!  
Your employees will enjoy a day of bonding with each other as well as connecting with our clients. They will also get a sneak peek into our “Motivations” Class, where our clients are encouraged and work on their soft skills for a job environment. And you may get to hire from an untapped pipeline of talent while also fostering positive change in the community! 

4. Organize a Drive for Critical Needs
