Our vibe is growth-focused. From Life on Mars social events to Start Small community support efforts, to WeLead women’s leadership discussions and DE&I initiatives, everything we do outside of the work is geared toward providing growth opportunities for our Martians and their communities.
At The Mars Agency, we have a mission to make a positive impact across a “Triple Bottom Line,” which focuses on growth for our clients, growth for our people, and growth for our community. To support the many communities we are a part of, we created Start Small, our community volunteer initiative. Our goal is 100% employee participation in at least one of the program’s three pillars:
*Quarterly events hosted by our local offices;
*Martian Missions, in which employees apply for up to 160 hours of time to support a cause of their choice;
*Individual Personal Volunteer Days.
