Community Health Charities of Georgia Offers Free Volunteer Matters 365 Program to Local Businesses
Community Health Charities of Georgia connects employees to health and wellness information, volunteer opportunities and the ability to give to Georgia's most trusted health charities. With free programs like Health Matters at Work and Volunteer Matters 365, they help companies achieve year-round employee engagement.
Atlanta, GA, April 21, 2012 --(PR.com)-- For Georgia companies looking to plug into philanthropy, Community Health Charities of Georgia is pleased to announce the new Volunteer Matters 365 program. With volunteerism becoming increasingly important to many businesses, this free search tool helps employees find volunteer opportunities at leading charities throughout the state.
For years, Community Health Charities – the nation’s largest workplace giving program devoted exclusively to health – focused solely on employee giving campaigns. After companies expressed a strong interest in health information and other services, Community Health Charities introduced the Health Matters at Work® program, which currently provides free, 24/7 access to health information from the nation’s most trusted health charities. Volunteer Matters 365 and the new volunteer search tool were created in response to widespread interest in volunteering at work.
“More companies are making a commitment to corporate social responsibility, of which employee volunteerism is a significant component,” said Brenda Horne, CEO of Community Health Charities of Georgia. “Businesses understand that there are collateral benefits to supporting volunteerism at work and connecting employees to opportunities that are meaningful to them. People often become involved in and contribute to causes where they have a personal connection, and they appreciate the support of their employer. Volunteerism is simply good sense and good business.”
The Volunteer Matters 365 search tool enables employees to search quickly and easily for targeted opportunities throughout the United States. Numerous features can be customized for companies, including:
- The option to be posted on a company’s Extranet, Intranet or housed on www.healthmattersatwork.org
- The ability to be branded with a company’s logo and colors
- The ability to promote company-sponsored events and activities
- Social media options, including Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn
- Offers a customized RSS feed
- A calendar feature that synchronizes with Outlook, iPhone and Google calendars
- The option to include all federations affiliated with employee giving campaigns

With programs like Health Matters at Work® and Volunteer Matters 365, Community Health Charities of Georgia is dedicated to advancing health and wellness in the workplace through a three-tiered approach that includes Health & Wellness, Volunteerism and Giving.
“We no longer just go into a company and ask them to include us in their employee giving campaign – it’s about providing 24/7, year-round employee engagement,” Horne said. “We are proud to be able to offer such a complete package to Georgia companies. Health is an issue that touches all of us, and employees want access to the best health charities. It’s truly a win-win for everyone.”
