Global Volunteer Strategy

One of our greatest examples of our work at the international level is the one we have been developing for AWS for the last two years. We have designed the AWS Global Volunteering Strategy. Organizing the first Global Volunteer Month in 2024 in: Tokyo, Sydney, Seattle, Seattle, Santa Clara, New York, Herndon, Bangalore, Austin, Arlington, London, Dublin. Supporting the company in the search for partnerships, community relationship management and design of local projects. As well as in the management of the program’s communication, with the production of videos and different graphic supports .
Employee Community Engagement Strategy

We coordinated the international strategy for the company Amadeus. One of the characteristics that makes this program special is that it is one of the few companies that from Spain leads all the actions not only of corporate volunteering, but also of engagement with the community, as the name of the program itself states, for all the countries in which it operates in the world. Among the different actions developed from this strategy, the organization of the Volunteer Month and the call for the Social Impact Challenge stand out, in which an important call to global action was made for people working in the company to help identify sustainable tourism projects worldwide.

- One of the 15 most important software companies for the tourism sector in the world.
- Works in more than 190 markets
- More than 19,000 employees
- 150 different nationalities
Other Countries Program

Since 2015, Fundación Teléfonica’s Other Countries program has included different actions worldwide for its International Volunteer Day, in which hundreds of volunteers participate. Since 2017 we also participate in the international coordination of activities in more than 12 countries and since 2019 we manage its corporate volunteering program entirely in Germany through the coordination of its technical office.

- In the last year alone, they have participated:
- Over 2,500 volunteers
- More than 12,000 hours
- 80,000 people benefited
Mentoring and corporate volunteering with high social impact

With the purpose of promoting the sustainable economic development of the Colombian countryside, Volies accompanies the Bancolombia Foundation in high-impact corporate volunteering activities, such as the design and implementation of Mentoring Marathons to help organizations and rural enterprises to solve specific challenges in their management, or environmental protection and conservation actions in enclaves of great ecological value for Colombia, such as the Biosuroeste Agropark and the Salamanca Island Park, among others.

Management of corporate volunteering in social organizations

We conducted a pilot experience in 2023 for the Bolivar Davivienda Foundation based on the “Voluntare Certification of Excellence in Corporate Volunteer Management”, thanks to which 14 social entities received training. In 2024, the experience was repeated with another 14 entities, with the purpose of developing and strengthening the corporate volunteering program network in their allied social organizations and participating NGOs.
