Employee Resource Group Guidelines Philanthropy and Giving for External Non-Profit Organizations:
While philanthropic giving is not a requirement of CREA Employee Resource Groups, CREA encourages opportunities for alignment within its current Philanthropy & Giving among its Social Impact Work. If ERGs decide to engage with external non-profit organizations, the following guidelines will be applied: • External non-profit organizations in which employees support must be in alignment with CREA’s values. • ERG Leads and Co-Leads must seek approval from the Head of Social Impact for external non-profit organizations that are promoted to employees to make donations only directly to the non-profit. • Donations made by employees to the non-profit could be eligible to be matched by CREA.
