Answer 1

1. Organizations have the knowledge and resources to do good in the community, so they are responsible for helping others.

Step-by-step explanation:

Companies that exist for the sake of making profits are prone to do it at the expense of other social and economic structures. Thus, social responsibility is an important part of running a big firm with massive resources that can be put to this use.

Companies have think tanks, monitory and administrative advantages to do Social work that many organisations simply can't and if they do it, it produces greater trust among the public and clientele too, along with a loyal worker base too.
