SOCIAL FRIDAY
So, what are you doing this Friday afternoon?
What is Social Friday?
Research proves that Friday afternoons are the least productive part of the workweek. SOCIAL FRIDAY is about engaging your team and dedicating those unproductive pre-weekend hours to volunteer activities that help social causes in your local community.
Why do it?
It`s a great and easy way for companies and schools by devoting time on social issues of their own interest to actively contribute to the public welfare. It helps the community while it empowers your team… it’s “doing well by doing good”.
Who is behind it?
A team from across Europe, that shares a commitment to seeing long term mindset change in society and believe the private sector and schools can help drive this vision forward. With no affiliations to religious or political groups, the team simply wants to help companies, schools and communities work together for a stronger economy and a better society.
