Answer to Question 1

C
Explanation: C) Without significant investment in planning or money, Org C is demonstrating CSR better than the irresponsible, mandated, or forced actions of the other organizations even though it isn't paid time off. They are engaging their employees with the community which is mutually beneficial and encouraging time to relieve stress or improve health benefits for the employees. This could be considered a valuable benefit if you are short on time. They also are acting voluntarily to contribute to these causes which is perceived differently than efforts based on mandates.
