Volunteering

VolunteerMatch, the world’s largest volunteer engagement network, today announced its support for Governor Gavin Newsom’s #CaliforniansForAll service initiative and #CaliforniansForAll microsite that highlights key cause areas.

What motivates your employees to participate in your corporate volunteering program? With so many options available today for giving and volunteering why in the world would anybody choose to do it through the workplace? If you’re not asking that question you should be. Your employees are.

For more than a decade, Legg Mason has taken the time each year to celebrate Earth Day. Beginning with the founding of our Corporate Social Responsibility function in 2008, our annual Earth Day activities have become increasingly important.

Now more than ever, we are #UnitedTogether around the communities we serve.

This week we honor National Volunteer Week, April 19th-25th, an effort led by Points of Light – the world’s largest organization dedicated to volunteer service.

The Stand for Small coalition will provide millions of U.S. small businesses access to support through valuable services, offers, tools and expertise, among other benefits.

The outbreak of COVID-19 is a global concern, with effects filtering down to organizations close to you and me that are in critical need of assistance. Lives are disrupted, more people than ever are calling out for help, and responders are hard-pressed to meet the overwhelming demand.

April is Volunteer Month, but with the COVID-19 pandemic cancelling many in-person/community volunteer opportunities, there are other ways to make an impact - virtually and remotely - during this time of social distancing.

Across America and around the world, we are witnessing the true spirit of caring for others as our colleagues, friends, and neighbors align to ensure all are safe and secure and have access to basic necessities during the COVID-19 outbreak/pandemic.
