City Advocates Recruiting Employees into Service
Mission is to develop:
Developing and managing an employee-driven volunteer program … assisting employees in finding opportunities to give back to the community
Workplace CARES provides city employees an opportunity to make a significant contribution through organized volunteer efforts. Employees evaluate and choose CARES projects that will make an impact on our community and our hearts.
This employee volunteer program began in September 1995 and provides city employees (who have limited time but want to give back to the community) an opportunity to make a significant contribution through organized volunteer efforts. In 1998, 100 employees, plus various departments, participated in 10 CARES projects donating over 4,000 hours.
Workplace CARES Committee evaluates and choose CARES projects that will make an impact on our community and our hearts. These projects contribute to increased employee morale, build leadership skills, and increase collaboration between City departments.
