Volunteer Time Off (VTO) & Support the Vitalant Foundation

Turn Your Hours Into Greater Impact

Your time is incredibly valuable to our mission, and your company can actively incentivize your dedication! Through Volunteer Grants (\"Dollars for Doers\"), your company can turn your dedicated hours into a direct financial donation. By searching your company and submitting a request, you can unlock these grants and multiply your impact.

To make earning those hours easier, many companies offer Volunteer Time Off (VTO), allowing you to volunteer during regular work hours without using your personal vacation time.
