CFT for Business will host events designed for member companies and employees. Weekly volunteer projects and learning opportunities will be offered throughout the month of April.
Volunteer opportunities will align with CFT’s four intersectional grantmaking priorities: Health, Wealth, Living, and Learning. At CFT, we see these focus areas as pillars in building a thriving community. Each week will feature a different pillar, with multiple service opportunities to choose from.
In 2022, more than 400 volunteers from 40 different CFT for Business member companies completed over 2,100 hours of service with 26 nonprofit partners.
Additionally, a variety of publicly available volunteer projects will be featured throughout the month in partnership with locally based volunteer management platform, VOMO, and The Dallas Morning News’ cause marketing initiative, FWD>DFW.
Volunteers can visit here and search for projects by issue area, by date, or by “anytime” projects featuring organizations in need of ongoing volunteer support. Last year, there were more than 150 projects to choose from.
During this month-long initiative, local businesses can choose to sponsor an entire week’s worth of volunteer events or a single event. Sponsorship opportunities range from $2,500 to $25,000. Companies can also join CFT for Business as a Business Impact Network member to participate in custom opportunities to engage employees. We hope that you, your family, and your company will consider joining us this year in whatever capacity you can.
