The Social Accord Program

Earlier this year, we whipped open the dictionary app on our phones to define our new employee volunteer program.  Ok, ok, so that is a slight exaggeration… but we did take the time as a team to analyze what we wanted to do, how we wanted to do it and what we wanted to name it. After a lot of discussion and an internal staff competition, we found a natural title for the program – the Social Accord Program. Because mGive is a Mobile Accord service, and the phrase “Social Accord” closely ties to our company values, the name stuck immediately.

It did not take long for the program to take off. Every full-time employee now has the opportunity to use 4 hours of paid time-off a month to volunteer for a nonprofit of their choosing.
