Celebrating the Impact of Volunteers During National Volunteer Month This April - and All Year Round
Each year in April, individuals and organizations across the United States and around the world celebrate National Volunteer Month to honor the important impact volunteers have in our communities, and to encourage even more people to start volunteering. Many businesses in particular set aside time for team volunteer days or encourage employees to leverage paid volunteer time off to support the community during Volunteer Week, which takes place April 7 - 13 in 2019 (and April April 19-25 in 2020).

Civil rights violations and abuses. Health crises. Ever-diminishing natural resources. This can be a very depressing list so I won’t make it exhaustive. Yet in the face of this much turmoil, when I think of problems our society faces, I’m not disheartened. In fact, I am hopeful.

Workplace Giving and Payroll Deduction: One of the Best-kept Secrets to Creating Social Impact
With numerous donation methods, including check, credit card, and PayPal, and the emergence of new fundraising platforms like Facebook, GoFundMe, and Text2Give over the past decade, there’s no shortage of options for employers and their employees to support the communities in which they live and work. However, so many options can be overwhelming and confusing – to donors as well as the leaders tasked with coordinating their company’s employee giving and corporate philanthropy initiatives.
