Businesses can support Giving Tuesday in Ireland by encouraging their employees to volunteer on the boards of local charities. Board volunteering allows staff to contribute not only their professional skills - such as finance, marketing, HR, or strategic planning - but also their life experience, perspective, and enthusiasm, which are equally valuable.

For charities, having board members from diverse backgrounds brings fresh ideas, strengthens governance, and enhances decision-making, while providing access to networks and resources that might otherwise be unavailable. This type of volunteering drives meaningful community impact, fosters employee engagement, develops leadership skills, and reinforces a company’s commitment to social responsibility, showing that everyone truly has something to give.
