Employee Volunteerism
Many resources for community engagement come from ADC employees themselves, and the ADC Foundation manages several programs to encourage and support both individual volunteerism and company-organized volunteer activities.
- Individual ADC employees volunteer on their own in a variety of local or regional nonprofit organizations in most of the countries where ADC has larger facilities and sizable clusters of employees. In the U.S., ADC’s “Dollars for Doers” program supports defined volunteer engagement.
- ADC employees work together for their communities by participating in company-organized volunteer projects or at-work fundraisers. A number of our larger employee sites feature quarterly or seasonal events that engage employees in a community-serving project or engage them in at-work solicitations that involve a fun activity and provide a match of employee donations by the ADC Foundation, in support of the targeted local non-governmental agency.
- ADC leaders leverage the company’s reach by engaging as volunteer leaders for local or regional community organizations or industry associations. ADC operates a formal program (“CLIC” – Corporate Leaders in Community) for encouraging and supporting ADC leadership community engagement and, where appropriate, seeks to align leadership engagement with ADC’s strategic community partners.
