Moody’s Future Solutions™ Global Pro Bono Consulting Workshop
Pro bono volunteering is an important means for reaching underestimated groups and creating more successful communities. In October 2022, we held our first-ever Global Pro Bono Consulting Workshop, where nearly 70 of our colleagues donated a total of 828 hours to support 14 nonprofits in their respective regions.
The virtual workshop supported organizations that focus on empowering small businesses and supporting ecosystem restoration. During the sessions, our volunteers used their skills and expertise to help improve the nonprofits’ capabilities in the areas of finance, project and data management, and communications, among others.
The workshop is a prime example of our Community Impact strategy in action and our commitment to providing more opportunities for our people to make a difference. At the heart of this strategy is employee engagement. Volunteering has been found to boost happiness and improve mental and physical health, and it helps contribute to a sense of purpose, pride and belonging at Moody’s. Take a look at some of our employee engagement programs:
We continue to be inspired by the generosity of our people and look forward to the next set of workshops in 2023. Watch the video to hear from our volunteers and nonprofit partners about their experiences with the workshop.
