At Yelp, volunteering and corporate philanthropy are more than just acts of goodwill — they are essential for enhancing our employees' well-being and engagement ❤️ This year, we combined our philanthropic efforts with our employee engagement initiatives during our first-ever Week of Service where Yelp employees had opportunities to participate virtually, independently, or in-person in select cities in a variety of curated volunteer activities. Check out what we accomplished 👇 🧑🤝🧑Over 400 employees participated in acts of service ⏰ We spent a total of 643 hours serving our communities 🌟Employees participated in an array of activities including building prosthetic hands to cleaning up a floating eco-park in Chicago, mentoring students in New York, packing winter kits for housing-insecure youth, and more ❤️The Yelp Foundation donated $50,000 to various non-profit organizations to continue to empower them to make an impact This #GivingTuesday and beyond, we believe that volunteering allows us to build lasting bonds with our communities and the people within them. It broadens our horizons by exposing us to new experiences and perspectives, while allowing us to contribute to something bigger than ourselves ❤️ Learn more about how we are engaging employees through philanthropy here 👉 https://lnkd.in/eXN-e7GK

When I think about #volunteering, I’m often reminded of a simple story: a single #drop of water. Alone, it might seem small, but when many drops come together, they form an #ocean. That’s the power of service. As individuals, our contributions matter, but when we come together - especially on a larger scale, like through organizations or corporations - we have the power to create #wavesofchange. Each small act, like planting a tree, mentoring someone, or helping a community, can create ripples of change. Now imagine the impact of businesses, with their resources and people, joining hands to amplify this effort. For us in the corporate world, volunteering is more than a responsibility. It’s a chance to give back, support the communities we work in, and prove that businesses can do more than just profit - they can create real change. This #Volunteer #Day, let’s reflect on how much more we can do together. As individuals, we can make ripples. As a collective, we can create #wavesofchange. #volunteer #youthvolunteer #volunteering #volunteerwithus #communityoutreach #communityorganizing #organization #donate #fundraising #community #charity #servingthecommunity #communityservice #foster #helpingothers #support #mission #join #awareness #wecare #rescue #fosteringsaveslives #humanitarian #socialgood #hope #campaign
