Benefits of Corporate Volunteerism

Let's open the debate in the run up to the event and discuss the issues that we find most pressing, most relevant and most urgent.

I guess every advocacy effort needs to have some sort of a 'Why' debate. Why should people volunteer? Why should employees volunteer? Why should employers support volunteering staff? Why should business be interested in society? Anything in that package for them?

So, in other words what are the benefits of Corporate Volunteerism? Commercially speaking or otherwise.
