VBSR Volunteer Day

Join Vermont Businesses for Social Responsibility for a day of volunteering and community building! We invite you to participate in a meaningful volunteer experience through Vermont nonprofits with service projects ranging from gleaning to litter cleanup!

VBSR’s Volunteer Day is open to all and is the perfect team bonding, making it a great way to spend time outdoors and use your paid volunteer time with your colleagues (or on your own) while giving back to your community!

After the various volunteer opportunities, we will celebrate with an After Party at Ben & Jerry’s (35 Thompson St, South Burlington, 05403) from 4:00 – 6:00 PM! Volunteers will be treated to ice cream while we unwind and build connections!

At the After Party, we will also hear from the Vermont Secretary of State’s office about the recently launched program, which is for Vermont businesses and nonprofit organizations that are committed to improving civic engagement and education across the state. The Vermont Secretary of State’s office provides trusted information and resources on voting and civic engagement to participating organizations for them to share with employees, clients, and customers.

Check back for various volunteer opportunities to be posted in August! Volunteer slots will be available on a first come, first served basis.

This event is family-friendly and caretakers of any kind are welcome to attend with your dependents! Please make note of any accommodation requests when you register.
