At Coompass, we are introducing our new series “Spotlight On Impact”, where we will highlight the amazing NGOs that have joined our platform and the valuable volunteer opportunities they provide. Each week, we will showcase these organizations that are committed to creating a positive impact in their communities and beyond.
Why “Spotlight On Impact”?
Our mission at Coompass is to connect passionate volunteers with non-governmental organizations (NGOs) that are actively working towards achieving the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Through this series, we aim to highlight the important work of these NGOs and demonstrate the specific ways in which you can participate.
What We’re Looking For
We are looking for NGOs that are dedicated to sustainability, social responsibility, and community development. Whether they are focused on environmental conservation, education, healthcare, or economic empowerment, their missions should align with the principles of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). By showcasing a diverse range of NGOs, we aim to create opportunities for companies, companies’ workforce, and volunteers with different skills and interests to make meaningful contributions.
What to Expect
In each weekly installment of “Spotlight On Impact,” you’ll discover:
- NGO Profiles: Learn about the mission and goals of each featured NGO. Understand how their work contributes to broader social and environmental objectives.
- Volunteering Needs: Explore the specific skills and expertise that these NGOs are seeking from volunteers, whether it’s project management, digital marketing, teaching, or community outreach. There’s a role for everyone who wants to make a difference.
- Impact Stories: Hear first-hand accounts of the impact these NGOs are achieving, from success stories to challenges overcome. Get inspired by their dedication and resilience.
Kickoff with Giving Tuesday Portugal
We are excited to kick off the series by highlighting our partnership with Giving Tuesday Portugal, an inspiring initiative that is part of the global movement known as #GivingTuesday. This movement, which takes place the Tuesday after Thanksgiving in the United States, has been replicated worldwide and, in Portugal, continues the momentum from Black Friday and Cyber Monday.
Giving Tuesday Portugal is all about unleashing the power of people and organizations to transform their communities and the world. It’s a day dedicated to generosity, and throughout the year, the organization encourages acts of kindness and collaboration across various sectors. Their mission focuses on fostering social good, spreading awareness, and connecting people with local causes that can benefit from their involvement.
Today is Giving Tuesday!
Giving Tuesday Portugal’s latest post highlights the importance of today as the most generous day of the year. The post calls on companies to be transformative forces in this global movement, helping create a positive impact through corporate donations, employee engagement, and amplifying charitable messages. Here’s what they have to say:
“Hoje é o GivingTuesday, o dia mais generoso do ano, e a sua empresa tem a oportunidade de ser uma força transformadora neste movimento global. Milhões de pessoas e organizações em todo o mundo estão mobilizadas para criar impacto positivo, e a sua empresa pode liderar pelo exemplo.
Cada gesto conta. Seja uma doação corporativa, o envolvimento dos colaboradores ou a amplificação de mensagens solidárias nas redes sociais, cada ação tem valor.
A participação da sua empresa é essencial para o sucesso do movimento. Pedimos que partilhe os resultados e histórias das suas iniciativas de hoje. Isto permitirá medir o impacto coletivo do GivingTuesday, inspirar novas iniciativas e demonstrar o compromisso da sua empresa com a responsabilidade social corporativa.”
