ONSITE PROJECTS*
ENGAGE EMPLOYEES IN A “WE CARE!” EXPERIENCE Hands On coordinates “We Care!” Engagement Events for employee teams to participate in impactful
service experiences that reduce the impact of poverty on people’s lives. These events connect the dots between the volunteer activity and the community need behind each package created. For each project, we invite a guest speaker from the local benefitting nonprofit organization to share their story and talk to the team about the impact these packages have on the individuals and families they serve each day. Each package listed below is placed in a bag or box that is personally decorated by your employee volunteers, along with a handwritten note of encouragement. HANDS ON MANAGES ALL ASPECTS OF THE EXPERIENCE, INCLUDING: • Facilitating all logistics before, during and after the event • Communicating with your company team leader and the benefitting nonprofit • Purchasing the needed supplies • Managing the onsite volunteer experience • Delivering the completed packages afterwards • Project evaluations and summary project achievements • Pre- and post-event photos shared with all partners • Project achievements highlighted on our website and social media outlets “WE CARE!” PACKAGES INCLUDE: Snack Packs- Beverage and snack items given to students who need additional nutritional assistance.
