Nearly three-quarters of American employees think their companies should help extremely poor people around the world if they have the resources, according to a survey conducted by Harris Interactive for Millennium Promise and CareerBuilder.com.

About half of workers cited social responsibility as the top reason their companies should help those living in extreme poverty, and another 29% said they believe that helping to strengthen an impoverished economy will also help the global economy. The most popular reason cited (by 52% of respondents) for helping was “because we have a responsibility to help those in need, wherever they may live.”
