( December 2017 update ) – At SOCIALBOX.BIZ we are committed to helping companies increase and measure social impact and social value performance. To this end we have implemented periodic exercises to achieve this by measuring social return and other positive contributions to society from our social and digital inclusion mission. We participate in various surveys, research papers and studies.
For example when companies carry out socially conscious programs with SocialBox.Biz designed to improve various areas of society, it’s important for these organisations to be able to measure their accomplishments. SocialBox.biz is excited to be a participant in this new study with a university and 180 Degrees consulting on better tools for measuring social impact. ! We are always excited to be able to share new information and innovation about how we help our Corporate Governance consultancy clients measure the social impact created by their Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) programmes as this is often a very challenging task SociaBox.biz have already published a number of best practice summary papers on the latest positive impact initiatives and standards such as ISO 26000 for social responsibility and can offer consulting on this and ISO 27001 aspects and scopes for both on site and offsite secure data removal, data secure and physical IT security and transport for example.
We also recently completed a lengthy impact assessment by an innovative non profit research group that promotes activities which solve social problems, and we are sharing some of the preliminary impact figures from this exercise. We are encouraged to be considered ”Outstanding” and ”Extraordinary” in the new online beta assessment we took. We also scored as outstanding for our facilitates for disadvantaged communities (our laptops and training for homeless, laptops for refugees and older people living in isolation who can not afford computer hardware or software ), innovative giving solutions that increase our clients social impact as well as top score for for our mission lock, governance, social impact indicators, mission statement characteristics, stakeholder engagements, board review of social impact, transparency and many others…
Average numbers are highlighted in black on the left and our scores as a social impact venture are highlighted in white on the right. Our social impact score was also through the roof also partially due to social re-investment of majority of profits.
Freelance writer and bloger Anesa recently commented in our constant positive impact blog on Word-press that there are various companies in this world that pride themselves on multiple things such as how large the company has become since inception, but not many can say they put advancement of society as first with their practices.
We at SocialBoxBiz have put this into our incorporation documents ensuring that majority of the company’s profits are reinvested and used for our social mission activities ensuring the mission is locked and that any investors in our ventures need to comply with this mission.
At SocialBoxBiz our services to businesses and our culture of being an example will hopefully inspire much larger businesses to take stock of where they are and whether a drive for profits is really and truly the main goal and motivator.
To boost your firm’s social impact score and ratings with investors, participate in one of our community impact initiatives today and help homeless people get their lives back on track. We currently have a shortage of laptops towards our 1000 laptops by 2020 for homeless people support initiative, to participate please visit;
