HOW CAN YOU HELP

FOR CORPORATES

Every year, an increasing number of organisations reach out to us with the intention of giving back to the community. These organisations look for programmes to deepen their corporate social responsibility commitments and offer their employees meaningful volunteering opportunities.

We have worked with a number of corporates and firms to develop programmes to help upskill migrant workers using these corporates’ core competencies, such as creating and providing Safety or Financial Literacy videos. Many corporates also run collection drives at their offices for specific items required by workers, encouraging their employees to volunteer and participate in our events at the same time. Plenty of organisations, such as DBS Bank, K&L Gates and Bain Consulting, also run events such as fundraisers in show of their support of specific causes.

Even simply speaking about our initiative and spreading the word can be a huge help to us. We encourage any corporates to directly engage in any of our ongoing events or to support us in the form of bulk donations of masks, food, drinks or preloved items – we recognise support comes in all forms and we appreciate each and every bit of support we get.

We work with a wide range of companies, from small and medium enterprises to government-linked companies, large banks and multinational companies. Past companies we’ve worked with include DBS Bank, Coca Cola, Varde Consulting, Syngenta, Edrington, Salesforce, Shoppee, Deloitte, and Bloomberg, Starbucks, Harvey Norman, IKEA, Bain Consulting, BCD Travel, Morrison Foerstor, Facebook, K&L Gates, Prada, LGT Bank, BBH, SingHealth, Amazon, Dyson, Flextrade, Burger King, Pizza Hut, ALT Pizza, Singtel, TSMP, Orchid Hotel just to name a few. These companies come back for more CSR opportunities and collaborations as they find the engagement meaningful, as well as simple enough to plan and execute.

We have a variety of CSR options available at IRR for companies. Please check out this brochure for more information. We have events such as donation drives, carepacks, movie night and free shopping for migrant workers Our inspIRRe store is also open for corporate partners to carry out teambuilding events. We offer activities such as Manager for a Day and can fit up to 20 participants in our space.

Another way to engage with us is to help spread the word about migrant worker welfare through speaking opportunities. Our founder, Dipa Swaminathan, is a frequent speaker at events organised by business houses and educational institutes. She uses these platforms to reach out to a wider audience, bringing to the forefront the many issues faced by migrant workers in order to spark dialogues around possible innovative solutions.

Some of our hosts for speaking engagements include JP Morgan Chase & Co, Apple, Pratt & Whitney, Changi General Hospital, and OnePeople.
