It’s good business to care! Civic engagement comes in a variety of forms, and we applaud businesses that provide paid time off for their employees to do community service.
The Time to Serve Pledge is an opportunity to recognize organizations that offer employees at least 8 hours of paid time off per year to do community service.
To share that your organization recognizes the value of community service to support nonprofit groups, pledge to give Time to Serve, and provide paid time off for community service.
After you take the pledge, we will contact you before adding your organization’s logo to the committed organizations section of this page.
The following organizations have taken the pledge to give their employees Time to Serve.

Additionally, leaders from the government, nonprofit, and business sectors shared models that provide paid time off for their employees to do community service.
