At ORENDA, we do what we do because a majority of corporations are not tapping into the true business and social value of their CSR efforts. Whether a company allocates $1,000 or $10,000,000 to its social and/or environmental programs, we believe they should be positioned to capture all of the benefits strategic CSR has to offer.

“When corporations support the right causes in the right ways – when they get the where and the how right – they set in motion a virtuous cycle…both the corporations and the causes they support reap the benefits.”

Michael E. Porter and Mark Kramer..
Harvard Business Review – December 2002

When employees, customers, and other key stakeholders are given the opportunity to get engaged with an organization by linking arms and making a difference together, they become inspired. A Strategic CSR program can help an organization create a sustainable competitive advantage while significantly improving their social and financial performance-Strategic CSR will:

• energize employees through trust and loyalty
• improve the opportunity to attract and retain great talent
• improve cross-functional communication and collaboration
• increase productivity  
• increase customer loyalty and satisfaction
