In 2018, Taproot partnered with Johnson & Johnson to pilot Talent for Healthy Communities, a skills-based volunteering program that connects J&J employees with community-based partner organizations working to advance health equity. Seven years in, Talent for Healthy Communities has engaged partners in 23 countries across 6 continents in this impactful and culturally relevant program. Today we are proud to release a new report, "Impact at Scale: A Blueprint for Global Skills-Based Volunteering," a framework and guide for other multinational corporations looking to broaden their volunteerism efforts. We hope that the report will inspire other companies to leverage the skills of their workforce to drive meaningful change for organizations on the ground across the globe.
