International Corporate Volunteerism

Impakt has partnered with CDC Development Solutions, a Washington DC-based international NGO, to offer our clients specialized international pro bono assignments, where corporate employees contribute expertise to local organizations in areas of social need. What results are relationships that are win-win-win: companies, their employees, and local clients all benefit from the partnerships developed, new skills learned, and services provided.  

CDS’s International Corporate Volunteerism (ICV) programs leverage public, private, and volunteer resources to strengthen businesses, institutions, and governments and are being delivered in over 80 countries.
