Social responsibility benefits communities and businesses of all sizes but it is essential when you are a small business owner with close ties to the community. Giving back not only benefits your local area but also helps attract new customers and employees, as well as makes business owners happier and healthier.

In addition, giving back to your community is important because it introduces networking opportunities and can supercharge your branding and marketing by building your organization's recognition and reputation. In fact, studies have found that approximately 90 percent of millennials will switch from one brand to another if associated with a cause they favor.
