A SMALL INITIATIVE BRINGS GREAT REWARDS






Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is defined as the way companies integrate social, environmental, and economic concerns into their values and operations in a transparent and accountable manner. It is integral to long-term business growth and success, and it also plays an important role in promoting Canadian values internationally and contributing to the sustainable development of communities. Did you know that, the Government of Canada works with the Canadian business community, civil society groups, with foreign governments and communities as well as other stakeholders to foster and promote CSR ?


Our economy is give and take. Companies provide services and products for the public and the public pays them for their work. Without this back and forth dynamic, our economy would not be able to grow.  One needs the other and likewise.
Think of CSR ( Corporate Social Responsibility)  in the say way. Companies spend a lot of money on meetings  , conferences, product launches and other events that bring no global or measurable value in the end. Their event remains a one-off , that brings nothing but a lot of invoices and bills to the company that produces them. If we think of our events as catalysts , companies might find implementing CSR strategies are not only rewarding but have an added benefit of bringing about an awareness and central responsibility to their work teams.

Check out this case study and how Aeroplan collaborated with Atmosphere to  produce an event that incorporated a strong corporate social responsibility initiative.

(Justmeans.com / CSR News) - Montreal – February 15, 2012 – Atmosphere Event Communications, a leading agency specializing in maximizing the potential of events is nominated for the Best Employee Engagement Strategy for 2012 by the Social innovation awards.

Atmosphere is headquartered in Montreal, Quebec, Canada and works with clients around the globe. This is the first year that Atmosphere has been nominated for this award. “Our dedication in providing experiential based programming combined with immersive learning environments is the key to our successful campaigns. We believe that attendees involved in our programs retain a greater deal of information due to the emotional connection with the cause.” Says Jason Katz, President, Atmosphere. This year we developed a program for Canada’s premier coalition loyalty program and gave 350 employees hands- on opportunity to give back to the community by helping raise awareness of homeless youth for Dans la Rue a grassroots, community-based organization that works with street kids and at-risk youth aged 12 to 25. The event encouraged employees to learn about street youth, panhandle for the cause and take part in a sleep-out in a parking lot in downtown Montreal. The initiatives fostered team spirit and created a sense of unity." The program delivered staggering results including $ 79,000 in cash, a greater awareness to the challenges that homeless youth face and the communications strategy generated over 600,000 impressions via non-traditional and social media.

ATMOSPHERE EVENT COMMUNICATIONS: AEROPLAN RAISES $66,000 FOR FONDATION DANS LA RUE



Atmosphere Event Communications is a leader in conceptualizing new and engaging ways to mobilize audiences into action. It is through special events that Atmosphere brings its ideas to fruition.

This month, their concept for Aeroplan's annual company event was no different. The concept had all the right elements: engaging, interactive and impactful with an objective.
The event , in collaboration with Aeroplan was the vehicle to bring awareness and raise funds for fondation Dans la rue. A Montreal organization which aids the homeless.
It is said that you never really understand someone until you’ve walked a mile in their shoes. For 24 hours Aeroplan employees experienced first hand what it might be like to be homeless. Loss, hardship, challenges fear and hopelessness.
Over a period of two days, employees participated in activities geared around supporting kids on the street, including sandwich making for the homeless, street fund raising for Dans la rue, insights and learnings from a homeless veteran and a sleep-out in a parking lot in downtown Montreal.
Through this experiential experience, Aeroplan's employees raised $33,000 for the foundation. Aeroplan matched that figure for a total of $66,000.
Prior to the event, a fundraising website was launched and a social media campaign helped to create awareness around this important cause.
The event was recognized and covered by numerous media agencies.

Here are a few below.



The brainchild for the idea was thought out by Atmosphere's visionary president, Jason Katz.

Here are some highlights from the event.
Bare boned production added to the overall feel of the event.
