Glossary Term

Volunteer Time Off (VTO)

An employer-sponsored benefit that grants employees paid time off from work specifically to volunteer for an eligible charitable organization or community cause.

Why It Matters

For Corporations

A powerful employee recruitment and retention tool that boosts corporate morale, builds a strong internal team culture, and fulfills social impact mandates. It provides measurable data points for corporate social responsibility reporting by showing a tangible investment in the community.

For Nonprofits

Provides critical access to highly skilled corporate talent and larger groups of weekday volunteers. This predictable influx of labor helps community organizations support complex operational needs, host larger events, and tackle specialized projects that they might not have the budget to staff otherwise.
