Workplace - Haiti Relief

Just curious if any of your employers are encouraging Haiti relief activities at work. I've toyed with offering employees the chance to wear jeans all week with a $20 donation, but I keep hearing people say they have no money so I don't know how useful it would be. (Of course some of the people crying no money always walk in with a Starbucks each morning....)

Re: Workplace - Haiti Relief

  • granted it's PT, but no, and i hate when employers encourage donations to any fund.  i'm much less likely to donate through a place of employment than i am on my own.  and also re: SBUX, some people have different priorities.

  • I don't have a "real" job, but at an old job we would  get jeans days like 4 times a month for a $5 donation to a cause.  For us it was totally worth it and most people did it (it was a younger crowd though).

  • I agree with Charch, but I've also been repeatedly solicited for donations by my boss so I'm kind of sour to the whole thing.
  • I thought about trying it here but most people are very sour simply b.c of where we work.  I would dare not ask anyone to give.

    How many people do you work with?  Why not a $10 or $5 donation?  Anything would help!
