UPS recently became a founding member of IMPACT 2030, a business-led global collaboration of the United Nations, the private sector and civil society organizations whose mission is to encourage employee volunteering around the world to advance the achievement of the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals.
Nearly 15,000 volunteers from UPS's global offices and business units are expected to contribute 315,000 volunteer hours this month, furthering the company's service commitment legacy.
Spearheaded by The UPS Foundation, the global philanthropic and corporate citizenship arm of UPS, Global Volunteer Month mobilizes employees from every region to engage in a variety of service activities. During October, UPS team members will assist with a range of projects including tree planting and landscaping, food and supplies collection, packaging and distribution, participation in community fundraising events and administrative support for organizations focused on driving social change.
UPS employees' efforts during Global Volunteer Month support the company's pledge to complete 20 million hours of global volunteerism by the end of 2020. Since 2011, UPS has contributed more than 7 million service hours toward this goal.
"I am excited to unite our UPS '20 million by 2020' volunteerism goal with the goals of IMPACT 2030 and marshal UPS employees to contribute to a larger global movement," said Eduardo Martinez, president of The UPS Foundation and chief diversity and inclusion officer at UPS. "We are proud to support the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals and address critical needs around the world."
Each year, UPS concludes Global Volunteer Month with a $10,000 grant to a non-profit organization in each U.S. region and business unit.
