Chris Jarvis posted a blog postA Comparison of 12 Workplace Giving Tools
There are new options for workplace giving tools almost every month. The United Way may have normalized the idea of ‘giving at the office’ but these new tools take the concept way beyond traditional giving campaigns. With so many options available these days to manage workplace giving, we've created a list for our readers - and we've added our own perspective. The following list is not exhaustive by any means. In fact, we’d like to extend an invitation to our readers to create a more complete…See More

A couple testimonials from a recent speaking engagement;
“Chris is an exuberant presenter and engages his audience from the moment he starts speaking. His wit and playful approach to teaching and facilitating made attending his workshop a pleasure. His examples, in particular, made it possible to really absorb and understand the material… as did the anecdotes he shared with the group. Finally, I got the distinct impression that Chris was there to not only share with us, but to learn from and with us – and I value that highly in a presenter. I will seek out other opportunities to hear Chris speak – I really enjoyed being a part of his audience.”
Kirsten Keil-Mehlenbacher, Manager, Volunteer Programs, Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation

“Chris is an engaging, humourous, practical speaker. He challenges you to think beyond the borders of what you are doing today to see different possibilities and potential for tomorrow.”
