National Volunteer Week is an important moment to pause and reflect on how we can all give more to our local communities through the donation of our time and talent. This year, through our Corporate Social Responsibility Program, Helping Hands, we are focusing on encouraging our colleagues, business partners, family, and friends to share the gift of their time. A few ways to engage in active volunteerism include: · Organizing a collection effort: books for local libraries; new or gently used clothing, toys, or household items; nonperishable or canned goods; supplies for animal shelters, such as towels, blankets, food, toys, and cleaning supplies · Volunteering at an elder center, animal shelter, or charitable event · Lunch or meal prep for a food shelter · Making STEM and STEAM kits for local schools · Performing an environmental cleanup day at local parks, trails, or waterways If you’re looking for a little extra inspiration, check out the touching story of Ashley M.’s volunteer work with Shelter Wakadogo: https://lnkd.in/eiFmzKVh Ashley is a recent Held’s Hero Award recipient r
