Bang for your buck: How companies can create a strategic plan for impactful engagement
Join our panel of experts heading AustCham’s three CSR partners, The Hub, The Fred Hollows Foundation, and the Australian Indigenous Education Foundation.
When corporates consider their philanthropic journey, there are a number of key elements that can assist in creating a greater impact. Building a meaningful partnership with NGOs or charities requires hard work, and its success will depend on the groundwork put into defining objectives and goals. Staying true to purpose will also help in navigating through challenges and in achieving success.
Driven by the Women in Business Network, this session will discuss:
- How corporates or individuals can conduct due diligence on beneficiaries
- How to spend funds responsibly and effectively
- The different approach Millennials and Gen Z are bringing to shared value and strategic philanthropy
- How charities and NGOs operate and get the support they need
All proceeds from this event will be evenly split and will go to AustCham’s three CSR partners The Hub, The Fred Hollows Foundation and the Australian Indigenous Education Foundation.
