Creating Impact Through Action

At CTW Events, we specialize in creating impactful, scalable team-building experiences that help global organizations like Amazon make a difference in the world. Amazon’s Global Month of Volunteering is a month-long initiative dedicated to making a positive impact in the communities where their employees live and work.

Since 2022, CTW Events and Amazon have partnered to host various volunteer activities during Global Month of Volunteering. Throughout the year, we’ve collaborated on numerous events, big and small, to support various causes and help those in need.

Global Impact with CTW Events and Amazon

During Amazon’s Global Month of Volunteering alone, we supported 327 events across the globe—280 in the US, 46 in Europe, and 1 in Asia. CTW Events and Amazon customized each event to meet the specific needs of each team, ranging from large-scale gatherings with thousands of volunteers over several days to smaller, more intimate groups working together for an hour. No matter the size, each event was characterized by a sense of fulfillment and positive energy.

Making Sustainability and CSR Fun

Mike Tarselli and colleague Ariella Sasson, a solutions architect specialist leader, volunteered to build hygiene kits for displaced people.

"Personally, I'm always refreshed and reinvigorated after a volunteer session. I'm very grateful that Amazon sees sustainability and corporate responsibility seriously enough to bake it into our Leadership Principles, and to request Amazonians get out there and actively practice service to their communities and the broader world."

Packing Kits for Change

Amazon employees supported multiple pillars of charity by building hygiene kits for disaster relief, packing dignity kits for those displaced from their homes, and filling backpacks with school supplies for children worldwide. Thousands of employees participated in the events, with volunteers packing a total of 400,875 kits and supporting 228 nonprofits globally, including 200 hyper-local organizations.

The Future of Volunteering

CTW Events and Amazon are excited to continue their partnership and aim to make an even greater impact. By organizing more volunteer activities, we hope to continue supporting those in need and fostering strong team connections within Amazon.

The collaboration between CTW Events and Amazon during the Global Month of Volunteering showcases how corporate social responsibility and team-building can create lasting, positive change in communities worldwide. We’re excited to see what we can achieve together in the future.
