Do Your Part for
Military Families
Through Corporate Leadership
Authentic Action. Measurable Impact.
What Does it Mean to "Sign On" as a Do Your Part Corporation?
Corporations play a powerful role in shaping opportunities for military families. When done authentically, this work strengthens brand trust, employee pride, and community connection.
Do Your Part Corporations engage in one or more of the following ways:
- Invest through strategic philanthropy aligned to the real, demonstrated needs of military families
- Activate employees and customers through thoughtful, values-aligned campaigns
- Lead cross-sector partnerships that strengthen systems supporting military families
- Elevate the needs of military communities through credible leadership and influence
Participation is flexible and designed to complement existing CSR, ESG, or community investment strategies.
Who This Initiative is For
Do Your Part Corporate is designed for organizations across all industries and sizes that are committed to strengthening support for military families through thoughtful, coordinated action, including:
- Corporate social impact CSR, and ESG leaders
- Corporate foundations and giving teams
- Brands seeking authentic, values-aligned partnerships
- Organizations looking to engage employees in meaningful ways, including through ERGs and volunteerism
Through the Do Your Part Corporate Initiative, corporations partner with Blue Star Families to deepen their impact in the military community through corporate social responsibility, philanthropy, partnerships, volunteerism, and customer engagement.
Rather than prescribing a single model, the Do Your Part Corporate Initiative offers adaptable pathways that allow companies to contribute in ways that align with their business goals, values, and capacity.
This work focuses on:
- Aligning corporate resources with the real, demonstrated needs of military families
- Identifying high-impact opportunities across philanthropy, programs, and influence
- Making collaboration easier across sectors
Why This Matters
Military families contribute meaningfully to the workforce, economy, and civic life in communities nationwide. They are also among the most widely supported and respected communities in the country, with broad public support that cuts across political beliefs, geographies, and demographics. That shared respect creates an opportunity for companies to show up around a cause that resonates with both employees and customers.
When support efforts are disconnected from lived experiences, the opportunity to make an impact can be lost. Corporate leaders can help close that gap by:
- Putting resources toward solutions that are already working
- Working alongside trusted partners to coordinate efforts
- Using their platforms to bring visibility to practical, proven approaches
When companies intentionally align their efforts, they help build stronger, more resilient military communities.
Why Start with Do Your Part?
Starting with Do Your Part provides companies with a clear, credible entry point to support military families, grounded in trusted research, lived experience, and a coordinated national approach. Rather than navigating the ecosystem alone, organizations can start with a framework that aligns intent, action, and impact.
Supporting military families strengthens workplaces and communities alike. Do Your Part Corporate provides companies with a practical, credible way to take action!
