COMMS&EVENTS | COMMUNICATION OF CORPORATE VOLUNTEERING PROGRAMS
What did we do? The challenge was to create a unique and unified identity across all the countries where we operate (Spain, France, Germany, Switzerland, England, Italy, Ireland, and Sweden) to engage and inspire volunteers while externally showcasing the positive impact of their actions, building trust and credibility in each region. To achieve this, we developed an internal communication cycle designed to invite participation, express gratitude, and highlight volunteer impact, contributing to the overall success of the program. With a strategic approach aligned with corporate pillars (yet humble, clear, and human), we crafted original narratives through videos and other content. These materials also serve partner NGOs as high-quality assets to share on their own channels, helping them convey their mission through their collaboration with Amazon Web Services.
ResultThanks to this communication strategy, we strengthened the volunteering culture among employees and fostered stronger connections with social organizations, enhancing the positive impact within the communities where Amazon operates.
AMAZON WEB SERVICES PROJECT
Volies supports the Community Engagement team of Amazon Web Services in Europe, the US, and South Korea. In addition to helping them strategically design their volunteering actions and implement them, we help them communicate these activities and give visibility to their mission: "to be good neighbours wherever they operate and where their employees work and live".
"Thanks to Volies, we have been able to document the real impact of our volunteering activities and create an engaged community that shares our vision. The care and dedication with which they take care of each detail is essential, both when organizing the activities and when sharing our social initiatives, giving a voice to the people at the heart of the community. For us, they have become a key partner to maximize our social impact"

What did we do?We couldn´t feel more connected to this challenge, as Volies and its audiovisual team have Valencian hearts. That´s why we suggested creating a mini-serie of videos telling the restoring process of the area through the actions of Endesa´s volunteers. In each episode, the volunteers themselves tell their collaboration, being narrators of this story of reconstruction and creating an inspiring audiovisual legacy.
"For our area, it is very important to have a partner such as Volies, that develops aproaches and generates contents always from a social perspective, under the premise of respect for people, their stories and the environments in which we record"

COMMS&EVENTS | COMMUNICATION OF CORPORATE VOLUNTEERING PROGRAMS
What did we do? Aware of the mobilizing power of communication, we collaborated with Ayuda en Acción to design a variety of initiatives on current topics for Millennials and Gen Z, ranging from webinars and talks to the production of the CtrlZ podcast. We developed the podcast’s branding, managed pre-production, proposed experts, coordinated participants, and oversaw the technical production of each episode. Additionally, we created content specifically for this generation, addressing social issues such as unwanted loneliness among young people, sustainable action, work culture, and eco-anxiety. These topics are explored in depth with experts and influencers, with young people themselves taking center stage as protagonists.
ResultsThe creation of a unique space for youth, featuring highly engaging content in a popular format, giving them the opportunity to take center stage while raising awareness of the world’s most pressing social and environmental challenges, and fostering a committed community ready to participate actively.

GRAPHIC DESIGN AND IDEA PRODUCTION.
Our deep understanding of social needs and environmental challenges enables us to create, design, and produce a wide range of initiatives to make your volunteering activities more impactful and aligned with your goals. For example, we organize sustainable kit assembly activities, allowing your volunteers to contribute directly to the causes your company supports, generating a double impact: assisting disadvantaged groups and raising awareness among your employees.

COMMS&EVENTS | COMMUNICATION OF CORPORATE VOLUNTEERING PROGRAMS
What did we do? We designed the stand set up on the Repsol Campus, where the volunteer activity took place and was visited by over 300 volunteers. The stand featured dynamic counters and materials to raise awareness of the initiative while fostering collaboration and teamwork among employees. Additionally, we managed the design and logistics of the energy efficiency kits, which included power strips, timers, LED light bulbs, and window weatherstripping — items that improve home energy efficiency and save around €350 per year. In terms of design and production, we created the kit boxes, assembly instructions, and other creative awareness-raising items, such as magnets with energy-saving tips.
ResultsA high-impact volunteer initiative involving complex production and coordination, which, thanks to its effective planning and execution, achieved its goal: supporting over 3,900 individuals and promoting the energy transition.
ENERGETIC EFFICIENCY KITS
For another year, Volies supported Repsol in organizing their International Volunteering Week, mobilizing over 3,500 volunteers across more than 20 countries.

We also created an inclusive experience at each location, involving beneficiaries from various NGOs to celebrate the day together and foster a deep connection with the event’s purpose. To further enhance the awards ceremony for the most committed volunteers, we produced trophies with social impact that not only recognized their dedication but also helped change lives through the NGO Ayudáme3D.

What did we do? With this short film, we sought not only to remember what happened but also to raise awareness and pay tribute to those who turned chaos into hope. That is why we chose December 5, 2024 — International Volunteer Day — to premiere the documentary in two of the affected towns, Picassent and Alaquàs, honoring this wave of solidarity and showcasing the power and impact of volunteering.
ResultsA technically outstanding documentary with an authentic, transparent, and emotional narrative, created to honor the volunteers and serve as a lasting legacy of this challenging moment in Spain’s history.
LA VOLUNTAD, DANA DOCUMENTARY
When the DANA struck Valencia, Volies and its audiovisual team joined thousands of citizens on the streets, helping communities respond to the devastation. Amid the chaos, we knew the story needed to be told: the stories of resilience, solidarity, and the volunteers giving their all. Capturing real, impactful moments is at the heart of what we do. Inspired by the courage and commitment of the people of Valencia, we produced the documentary “La Voluntad” (The Will), giving a voice to those on the frontlines and showcasing the transformative power of volunteering.

What did we do? We created the conference’s landing page and visual identity, developed the slogan that served as its common thread, and designed impactful participatory experiences. We maximized the event’s visibility through innovative multimedia strategies and produced all its audiovisual content. In addition, we coordinated 55 speakers and 10 workshops, compiling all their contributions into a single document to capture and share the event’s key takeaways.
ResultsWe succeeded in aligning the purpose of the 250 attendees with that of the event (to change the world through corporate volunteering), transforming the conference into an experience with real impact.
VOLUNTARE SUCCESS STORY
Voluntare held the 4th International Corporate Volunteering Congress and entrusted us with its organization. As the leading Spanish-speaking congress in the field, it brought together hundreds of companies, social organizations, and academic institutions over two days. At Volies Comms & Events, we managed the event from start to finish: from the initial concept to organization, logistics, and final production.
“They were the perfect partner for organizing a conference that brought together the leading figures in the sector, contributing great creativity to connect with the audience through a narrative that tied together all the content of the conference and creating innovative experiences to participate in and feel the purpose of the event.”

COMMS&EVENTS | EVENTS WITH A PURPOSE
What did we do? As Amazon Web Services’ volunteer and communication partner across Europe for many years, we have developed a deep understanding of their purpose, mission, and corporate culture. This insight allowed us to design the event strategically from start to finish, including visual identity and slogan, audiovisual content, internal communications, corporate gifts, travel logistics, volunteer activities aligned with their purpose, and leisure experiences to enjoy and explore Spain.
ResultsWe designed an event where, over the course of a week, 30 Amazon Web Services colleagues enjoyed a memorable experience that strengthened their team spirit and reinforced their commitment to making a positive impact.
OFFSITE SPAIN 2024 AMAZON WEB SERVICES
The Community Engagement team at Amazon Web Services held its annual offsite meeting in Madrid and entrusted us with its full organization.
COMMS&EVENTS | EVENTS WITH A PURPOSE
From there, we designed three unique events that brought the spirit of the tournament into a senior residence and into one of the towns most affected by the floods, Catarroja, and we also screened our documentary La Voluntad (The Will) about the DANA in the tournament’s fan zone. For the International Day of Older Persons, we organized Pachanguitas, the most emotional match of the entire tournament, held at a senior center. It was a surprise game featuring the tournament director and former professional player Pablo Andújar, tournament player Sergi Fita, and Spanish Senior champions Antonio López and Paco Revert. For a moment, the match filled the center with life, excitement, and connection. This initiative was supported by a dedicated video campaign to reinforce awareness of the role of older people in society. Our second event in Catarroja was a Street Tennis activation, developed in collaboration with the Catarroja City Council and the Valencian Tennis Federation. The initiative was conceived as a gesture of emotional and community rebuilding on the first anniversary of the DANA floods, engaging more than 50 children and contributing to the community’s recovery. Lastly, during the tournament, we coordinated the screening of the documentary La Voluntad, followed by a discussion with stakeholders and participants to commemorate the anniversary and foster community dialogue.
Faulcombridge Cup Tennis Tournament
This innnovative social initiative aims to transform tennis tournaments into impactful, purpose-driven events, creating inspiring experiences and building meaningful connections with the community that go far beyond the sport itself. What did we do? To bring this vision to life, we developed a collaboration model with the Faulcombridge Cup, Valencia’s premier tennis tournament, and jointly identified the groups and causes they wanted to support: senior citizens and those affected by the DANA floods.
ResultsThis social program allowed the Faulcombridge Cup to stand out as one of the first sports tournaments with a social impact in Spain, strengthening its credibility and connection with the community. As a result, it boosted the tournament’s reputation, visibility, and media interest, as well as engagement from stakeholders and sponsors.

What did we do? We designed the stand set up on the Repsol Campus, where the volunteer activity took place and was visited by over 300 volunteers. The stand featured dynamic counters and materials to raise awareness of the initiative while fostering collaboration and teamwork among employees. Additionally, we managed the design and logistics of the energy efficiency kits, which included power strips, timers, LED light bulbs, and window weatherstripping — items that improve home energy efficiency and save around €350 per year. In terms of design and production, we created the kit boxes, assembly instructions, and other creative awareness-raising items, such as magnets with energy-saving tips.
ResultsA high-impact volunteer initiative involving complex production and coordination, which, thanks to its effective planning and execution, achieved its goal: supporting over 3,900 individuals and promoting the energy transition.

What did we do? With this short film, we sought not only to remember what happened but also to raise awareness and pay tribute to those who turned chaos into hope. That is why we chose December 5, 2024 — International Volunteer Day — to premiere the documentary in two of the affected towns, Picassent and Alaquàs, honoring this wave of solidarity and showcasing the power and impact of volunteering.
ResultsA technically outstanding documentary with an authentic, transparent, and emotional narrative, created to honor the volunteers and serve as a lasting legacy of this challenging moment in Spain’s history.
LA VOLUNTAD, DANA DOCUMENTARY
When the DANA struck Valencia, Volies and its audiovisual team joined thousands of citizens on the streets, helping communities respond to the devastation. Amid the chaos, we knew the story needed to be told: the stories of resilience, solidarity, and the volunteers giving their all. Capturing real, impactful moments is at the heart of what we do. Inspired by the courage and commitment of the people of Valencia, we produced the documentary “La Voluntad” (The Will), giving a voice to those on the frontlines and showcasing the transformative power of volunteering.

What did we do? As Amazon Web Services’ volunteer and communication partner across Europe for many years, we have developed a deep understanding of their purpose, mission, and corporate culture. This insight allowed us to design the event strategically from start to finish, including visual identity and slogan, audiovisual content, internal communications, corporate gifts, travel logistics, volunteer activities aligned with their purpose, and leisure experiences to enjoy and explore Spain.
ResultsWe designed an event where, over the course of a week, 30 Amazon Web Services colleagues enjoyed a memorable experience that strengthened their team spirit and reinforced their commitment to making a positive impact.

COMMS&EVENTS | EVENTS WITH A PURPOSE
From there, we designed three unique events that brought the spirit of the tournament into a senior residence and into one of the towns most affected by the floods, Catarroja, and we also screened our documentary La Voluntad (The Will) about the DANA in the tournament’s fan zone. For the International Day of Older Persons, we organized Pachanguitas, the most emotional match of the entire tournament, held at a senior center. It was a surprise game featuring the tournament director and former professional player Pablo Andújar, tournament player Sergi Fita, and Spanish Senior champions Antonio López and Paco Revert. For a moment, the match filled the center with life, excitement, and connection. This initiative was supported by a dedicated video campaign to reinforce awareness of the role of older people in society. Our second event in Catarroja was a Street Tennis activation, developed in collaboration with the Catarroja City Council and the Valencian Tennis Federation. The initiative was conceived as a gesture of emotional and community rebuilding on the first anniversary of the DANA floods, engaging more than 50 children and contributing to the community’s recovery. Lastly, during the tournament, we coordinated the screening of the documentary La Voluntad, followed by a discussion with stakeholders and participants to commemorate the anniversary and foster community dialogue.
Faulcombridge Cup Tennis Tournament
This innnovative social initiative aims to transform tennis tournaments into impactful, purpose-driven events, creating inspiring experiences and building meaningful connections with the community that go far beyond the sport itself. What did we do? To bring this vision to life, we developed a collaboration model with the Faulcombridge Cup, Valencia’s premier tennis tournament, and jointly identified the groups and causes they wanted to support: senior citizens and those affected by the DANA floods.
ResultsThis social program allowed the Faulcombridge Cup to stand out as one of the first sports tournaments with a social impact in Spain, strengthening its credibility and connection with the community. As a result, it boosted the tournament’s reputation, visibility, and media interest, as well as engagement from stakeholders and sponsors.
