UpKeep is honored to be selected as a finalist in the category of Best Content Marketing Campaign by The Drum, amongst notable companies like LinkedIn, Starbucks, Verizon, Facebook, and more! The campaign we were recognized for was our COVID-19 Social Impact Project, where we used our platform to spotlight our customers and those in our community who are working hard out on the frontlines, while also hyper-focusing on providing them with valuable and helpful resources. Through this campaign, we were able to...

• Give back over $100,000 in credits to customers impacted by the coronavirus. If our customers did not need the credits, they were given the option to pay the credits forward to an organization working on the frontlines.

• Make weekly donations to support frontline workers, the most marginalized, and more. To name a few:

  • National Domestic Workers Alliance 
    

  • Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center
    

  • Sending flower bouquets to retirement homes
    

  • Help Feed the Frontline LA and World Central Kitchen 
    

  • GenYOUTH

• Create an open source job board for maintenance and reliability professionals facing unemployment or reduced hours due to COVID-19.

• Hold free resume consultations open to those in the industry, as well as friends and family members of our very own UpKeepers!

• Host our first Innovations 4 Hope (I4H) Hackathon to identify million dollar ideas and create concrete plans for execution that can provide value to our customers during this current crisis and in the resulting aftermath.

• Provide a ton of free webinars that would be helpful to our maintenance and reliability community. Topics include...

  • How to keep your team motivated during uncertain times

  • 8 tips on how to get ready for the upturn

  • How to find your next job opportunity

  • Coping with uncertainty: A personal journey

  • Rehrig Pacific: manufacturing during COVID-19

• Create the UpKeep SQF Audit Series, which is a collection of easy-to-use checklists organizations can utilize during their Safe Quality Food (SQF) audit journey.

• Make educational courses to help our customers during this time learn how to set up an account with UpKeep, as well as learn the foundational material they'll need for the CMRP exam!

• Share a Self-care and Social Impact Bingo Card that includes simple activities that can protect our mental and physical health, as well as several actions to make an impact in helping to slow the spread of COVID-19 and provide assistance to those in need.

• Honor frontline workers of maintenance and reliability by starting the the Maintain Hope Campaign, where we donated 100% of profits of all our swag and apparel to the World Health Organization's COVID-19 Solidarity Response Fund.

But, not only did we want to show care for our customers and community, we also had to get creative and think of innovative ways to thoughtfully approach and care for our employees. To help our team feel a sense of security, normalcy, and empowerment, we have been holding daily contests on Slack, company-wide events after working hours, eating lunch together through Zoom, and more!
