MARS Volunteer Program
As a Mars Associate, you can make a positive impact on the world through the Mars Volunteer Program (MVP).
The MVP is a powerful example of how we put The Five Principles into action in the communities that are at the heart of our business, our sourcing and our operating communities. This worldwide initiative unleashes the positive power of our greatest assets: our Associates. In 2017, more than 23,000 Associates from 282 sites volunteered over 100,000 hours. Some 130,000 people and more than 100,000 pets globally were positively impacted. Mars Australia and New Zealand Associates are proud to partner with a range of local organisations as part of the Mars Volunteer Program, whether that be lending a helping hand at the local pet shelter or the RSPCA; helping pack and distribute food for those in need via our Foodbank or New Zealand Food Network partnerships, or lending their professional skills to help local charities supporting their community.
We care about our planet and its people
