Simple Ways for Companies to Participate in NCW

Increase NCW Awareness at your place of work.

Organize an internal message to all employees describing NCW, its current theme and why and how your company is participating.

Host an NCW event.

Organize a student/youth event (on-site or otherwise) for that emphasizes chemical innovation occurring at your place of work as well as the importance of chemistry in everyday life. Employees and local section volunteers can perform hands-on chemistry demonstrations for students and take students and parents on a tour of the facility. Work with your nearest ACS local section to help plan, staff and organize this event.

Each year ACS Staff Council organizes Bring Your Child to Work Day to help kids learn about the place where their parents work (ACS!) and the many benefits of chemistry. Consider sponsoring a similar, NCW-themed event at your place of work.
