Corporate Volunteering
Put your values to work where you live
The happiest, most productive employees believe their efforts matter. Partner with New York Cares and give your team the chance to volunteer on meaningful projects, designed alongside local community organizations.
You want your employees to do more than work. You want them to thrive.
Volunteering has measurable value beyond the satisfaction of making a difference. It builds leadership skills. It builds teams. It builds the kind of loyalty and belonging an offsite can't manufacture.
And when the project is in the neighborhood where your office sits, your people don't just feel it that afternoon. They walk past it on their way to work.
Partner with New York Cares and you have the largest volunteer organization in the city behind your program — the relationships, the logistics, and the staff to support you.
Programs built for your team, your mission, and your budget.
Custom Group Volunteering
From lunchtime drop-in kit packing to environmental stewardship at a city park, custom programs are built around your company’s goals and schedule.
Corporate Volunteer Calendar
Themed ready-to-join opportunities every month of the year, including our seasonal Signature Campaigns. The easiest way for teams to show up and make a difference.

What you get when you partner with New York Cares
A nonprofit partner, all the way through.
New York Cares is a 501(c)(3). Your sponsorship goes straight into programs for New Yorkers who need them — the meals, the coats, the classrooms, the parks. Every dollar stays in the city where your team lives and works.
A turnkey program, start to finish.
Supplies, transportation, participant check-in, and a New York Cares leader on site running the day with real enthusiasm. We support your CSR or employee engagement team as much or as little as you need.
