how we reach out

Helping our community is of paramount concern to the team at Underground Communications and we believe that there are many ways that we can make a difference. We have several community initiatives, including committing to providing 1% of our corporate revenue in donations and 5% of our billable hours to pro bono work. Our staff are also provided with the pro rate equivalent of 16 volunteer hours per year, either with our company charity partner or volunteer/community organisation of their choice.

whitelion – pro bono agency of choice

Our association with Whitelion began in 2015 when Karen, our Creative Director attended her first Bailout event where she spent the night in a Yasmar, a former juvenile detention centre. She was drawn to the work that the organisation does with disadvantaged young people and the experience had a profound affect on her.

Over three years of taking part in the Bailout event, she formed a relationship with Whitelion founder Mark Watt and, in 2018 Underground Communications began providing pro bono services to the organisation.

From 1 January 2018, we also donate 1% of our revenue directly to the Whitelion Youth Homelessness Project in Sydney’s CBD where we know we can see the direct impact that we have.

conscious capitalism – ANZ

In addition to being early adopter members of Conscious Capitalism ANZwe have joined their community to assist with PR and content. This pro-bono work allows us to work on our core mission of helping to change corporate culture at the same time as using our skills to benefit people doing business for good.

Working closely with the leadership and marketing teams, our goal is to help share the stories of organisations that are building their success on a platform of inclusion, sustainability and purpose.
