Do you have a to-do list as long as your arm or a wish list of things you would like to do at your organisation, if only you had the time? Maybe you have a garden to be cleared or indoor spaces that are a bit shabby. Perhaps you have a business challenge or need advice from someone with professional expertise. If so, employee volunteers may be able to help!
If you’d like to chat about how employee volunteers might support your community group or organisation email us!
Looking for resources to help you benefit from employee volunteering?
If so, check out our Resource Library! Here you’ll find everything you need including ideas to engage volunteers, How to Guides, checklists that take you through planning a team activity, a sample project risk assessment, developing a task list for your activity and even painting guidelines for that one-off community painting project.
Wondering how companies are supporting other organisations like yours today?
Examples include: an organisation engaged a team of 20 employee volunteers who spent the day cutting back shrubs, painting fences, weeding and planting brightly coloured flowers in pots; a team of 12 volunteers spent an afternoon making Christmas cards with Down Syndrome clients for the clients' families; a secondary school invited a team of 6 volunteers to present at their careers night, skill sets included tech, risk management, HR, finance, quality and building facilities and maintenance; a team of 50 assembled 500 meal packs for homeless Ukrainians living in Ireland.
