These days, Labor Day marks the unofficial end of summer, a day at the beach and barbecues, but it began as a time to honor the achievements and contributions of American workers.
Join us in celebrating Labor Day by supporting the dedicated nonprofit employees serving our communities!
Ninety-two percent of nonprofits report a lack of critical resources and skilled volunteers—like you—can help fill that gap by donating your expertise. You can support nonprofit staff by tackling items on their to-do lists, all while making a difference with a cause you care about!

“Taproot helped me search through a number of organizations to find a cause that really spoke to me and felt meaningful to me and needed my specific skills to help support the good work they are doing,” – Kristin Royer, Taproot volunteer
