The Social Impact Playbook is a free resource designed for companies that want to build more intentional, effective, and community-informed employee volunteer and social impact programs. It brings together years of research and CSR best practices in an easy-to-use guide that helps community engagement practitioners and purpose-driven professionals think more strategically about their work.
What’s inside
- A framework organized around four core areas: Investment, Integration, Impact, and Inspiration
- Planning questions to help assess your current approach and identify opportunities to strengthen it
- Strategies and tactics for volunteering, giving, skills-based engagement, culture-building, measurement, and storytelling
- A practical planning checklist and impact measurement worksheet to support implementation
Why this matters
Strong social impact programs do not happen by accident. They require clear priorities, thoughtful design, and a practical way to connect company goals, employee interests, and community needs. The Playbook gives teams a useful place to start—and helps them build toward a more strategic, holistic approach.
How it connects to our support
For some teams, the Playbook is a first step. For others, it is a way to sharpen questions before exploring deeper support. If you are looking for hands-on help, Points of Light also partners with companies through Activation Services and Program Consulting.
