Benevity Expands Market-Leading CSR Platform to Mobile, Enabling More Inclusive, In-the-Moment GivingCALGARY, Alberta, Dec. 05, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Benevity, Inc., the global leader in corporate social responsibility (CSR) and employee engagement software, today announced the next evolution of its platform with the launch of the Benevity mobile app. Free to Benevity clients and available now for iOS and Android, the app allows companies to expand their CSR programs and forge deeper and more inclusive connections with their employees, empowering their people to do more good in the moment. Through the Benevity app, people can engage with causes they care about, anytime, anywhere they are inspired. According to a recent study from Global Workplace Analytics, remote work is on the rise, growing 44 percent in the last five years and a staggering 159 percent since 2005, while a 2018 Emergence Capital report categorized 80 percent of the global workforce as "deskless," working in industries like construction, manufacturing, agriculture, retail and healthcare.

The Benevity app gives employers a powerful way to include all of their people in giving, volunteering and other company-wide CSR or purpose-driven initiatives aimed at making a social impact, whether employees are based at their company’s headquarters or working in stores, field offices, home offices and other remote locations.
