100 Manpower Place, Milwaukee
Manpower Group embraces the philosophy that a corporation has a social responsibility to improve the welfare of its community. To date, the Fortune 500 company has received numerous awards for its commitment to ethics and environmental sustainability.
Founded in 1948, the corporation puts this philosophy into practice by forging long-term partnerships with many organizations to build a stronger workforce in Milwaukee—starting with the city’s youth.
Every year, Manpower donates numerous services to many local and national nonprofit organizations, including the Boys & Girls Club, Junior Achievement and Milwaukee Public Schools. Manpower works with student interns and youth apprentices from these organizations, which enables young people to gain valuable corporate work experience.
Besides allowing organizations to use conference rooms and technological equipment, and providing business consultations at no cost, ManpowerGroup offers space for nonprofits to hold events at the corporation’s global headquarters, at 100 Manpower Place in downtown Milwaukee.
ManpowerGroup hosted 141 events in 2017, an in-kind service exceeding $400,000 in value.Â
