Taking part in Do It For Dolly Day is a fantastic way for businesses to make a difference for those impacted by bullying whilst promoting kindness within the workplace. Here are six easy ways for your business to get involved, show your support and make a difference.
- Host a Blue Themed Event
Whether it’s lunchtime trivia or a morning tea, make it blue and fun! Use the time to talk about the importance of kindness and share Dolly’s Dream’s vision for a future free from bullying.
- Promote the Cause with Your Products or Services
Consider offering a special Do It For Dolly Day product or service for the month of May. Think special blueberry donuts, blue earrings, or a blue drink. This will help spread the word to your customers, and you can even donate a percentage or fixed amount of these sales to Dolly’s Dream in support of Do It For Dolly Day.
- Share the Message on Social Media
Use your business’ platforms to promote Do It For Dolly Day by sharing our posts or by creating your own. You can find us on Instagram and Facebook at @dollysdreamaustralia, or use the hashtag #GoBlueToEndBullying. Make sure to share why your business is taking part!3
- Match Employee Donations
If your business has the resources, consider matching any employee donations to Do It For Dolly Day. It’s a great way to show your employees that you’re just as passionate about ending bullying as they are.
- Donate a product or service to a local event
If you don’t have the chance to organise your own Do It For Dolly Day event this year, see if anyone else in the community is running one, and offer to donate a product or service from your business to their event, to be used in a raffle or silent auction.
- Light Up in Blue
If your business has a public-facing space, consider lighting up your building in blue on May 9th. It’s a simple yet impactful way to visually show your support for ending bullying. This can be especially powerful if your business is located in a high-traffic area where others will see it and be inspired to join the cause.
Getting your business involved in Do It For Dolly Day is an easy and impactful way to make a real difference for those impacted by bullying. Whether you’re hosting an event, donating, or lighting up in blue, every bit counts.
