6월 21일 목요일, 91개국에서 24,000명 이상의 닐슨 직원이 1,450개 이상의 이벤트에 참여하여 제7회 닐슨 글로벌 임팩트의 날(NGID)에 자원봉사자로 참여했습니다. NGID는 전 세계 직원들이 자신의 시간, 기술, 전문성을 기부하여 지역사회에 도움이 되도록 장려하는 연례 봉사의 날입니다.
“All Nielsen associates have 24 hours of dedicated volunteer time annually, and Nielsen Global Impact Day is one of many ways they can volunteer. NGID compliments the individual actions of our associates throughout the year and is a fantastic way for us to get involved and engage in our communities as a collective Nielsen family,” said Crystal Barnes, senior vice president of Global Responsibility and Sustainability at Nielsen.
NGID 자원봉사 행사는 전 세계 지역 리더들이 지역 비영리 단체와 협력하고 동료들이 변화를 일으킬 수 있도록 지원하고 힘을 실어주는 활동을 만들기 위해 손을 맞잡고 협력하는 방식으로 진행됩니다.
Bolivar Verbel, one of this year’s global NGID7 co-leaders based in Poland and Lead Business Process Improvement Partner, reflected, “The experience of co-leading NGID globally this year and the opportunity to use my professional skills to help our communities are simply priceless. NGID shows us how volunteering is embedded in our Nielsen way. Seeing the mobilization of thousands of associates, creativity and coordination in each country, commitment of managers, and events all over the world is just exciting!”
“NGID means energy, positivity, hope and dreams,” said María Inés Sánchez, NGID7 global co-leader in Argentina and Operations Execution Project Leader. “Being able to dedicate part of my work day to such a noble cause makes me very happy. It enriches me as a person, it allows me to meet Nielsen associates with a huge heart and gives me hope that the world can be better every day.”
This commitment to volunteering is shared across Nielsen at all levels. A snapshot of our colleagues in action this year include:
- 닐슨의 글로벌 집행위원회 위원 8명은 코네티컷주 페어필드 카운티 해비타트에서 지역 가족을 위한 저렴한 주택을 짓는 작업을 지원하는 자원봉사를 함께 진행했습니다.
- 6월 초 과테말라에 치명적인 화산이 발생하자, 중앙 아메리카의 닐슨 케어 팀은 즉시 도움이 필요한 과테말라 지역사회에 전달할 기금, 식량 및 개인 위생용품을 모금하기 위해 NGID 계획 활동을 전환했습니다.
- Across the U.S., more than 1,600 Field Operations team members—who are spread out across the country recruiting homes for Nielsen’s panelists—connected with each other for 75+ events and 6,600 collective volunteer hours.
NGID hours will count toward Nielsen’s five-year 300,000-hour volunteer goal. Beyond NGID, the Nielsen Cares volunteer program mobilizes our data, expertise and associates throughout the year to positively impact the communities where live and work around the world. These efforts include a $10 million commitment each year to pro bono, in-kind, and skills-based volunteering projects.
