WHAT IS A CSR WORKSHOP?
A CSR workshop is a facilitated team session that supports a real social cause while meeting a business goal (e.g. onboarding, collaboration, leadership alignment). KiFor runs these workshops with vetted NPO partners and provides outcome reports.
WHY COMPANIES USE CSR TEAM BUILDING IN JAPAN

KiFor gives HR / CSR leaders a structured, facilitated way to run a credible impact experience, using vetted nonprofit partners. So it’s easy to approve, easy to run, and easy to report internally.
