Kane Communications Group joins the United Nations Global Compact initiative

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Milwaukee (Feb. 22, 2022) - Kane Communications Group recently joined the United Nations Global Compact initiative — a voluntary leadership platform for the development, implementation and disclosure of responsible business practices. 

With this announcement, Kane Communications Group is proud to join thousands of other companies globally committed to taking responsible business action.

The UN Global Compact is a call to companies everywhere to align their operations and strategies with ten universally accepted principles in the areas of human rights, labor, environment and anti-corruption, and to take action in support of UN goals and issues embodied in the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

"The pandemic underlined how important it is for business to partner with government and community groups to solve the complex challenges our society is facing. Kane is excited and honored to join the UN Global Compact as a member because it provides a universal language for corporate responsibility and a truly unique opportunity to learn how businesses around the world are helping create measurable positive change for their stakeholders," says Kimberly Kane, President and CEO of Kane Communications Group.

Launched in 2000, the UN Global Compact is the largest corporate sustainability initiative in the world, with more than 15,000 companies and 3,800 non-business signatories based in over 160 countries, and more than 69 Local Networks. 

"Business can be a powerful force for good. As a member of Global Compact, Kane gains access to best practice tools, knowledge and networks that will give us even more ways to support our clients in their journey to become purpose-driven brands," says Kathleen Elsig, Vice President of Purpose & Impact at Kane Communications Group.

Kane is committed to helping businesses grow and become better corporate citizens. Our company’s core values of curiosity, perceptivity, ingenuity and teamwork drive us to make a better social, economic and environmental impact.
