Celebrate Labor Day by Supporting Nonprofit Employees

Aug 29th, 2023 Social Impact, Volunteer Consulting

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!

Finding your favorite cause is easy on Taproot Plus. We offer volunteer opportunities in twenty cause areas, ranging from animals to women’s rights. Here are just a handful:

Animals
  • Stray Animal Foundation of India seeks a volunteer to create videos highlighting rescue stories and sanctuary animals.
  • Chicago Canine Rescue Foundation needs business planning support.
Community Development
  • Play for Peace wants to update their logo.
  • Powerful Young Adults seeks a volunteer to review their financial statements.
Education
  • Make A Difference Inc. needs help creating a flyer.
  • Tutoria wants help to develop a fundraising strategy.
Environment
  • Planetary CARE seeks a volunteer to create email templates.
  • The Supporters of Agricultural Research Foundation needs help to design their pilot program.
Human Rights
  • Unity is Strength needs support with prospective donor outreach.
  • Connect All seeks graphic design
Social Services
  • Circles International needs help setting up their Xero accounting system.
  • Here to Serve seeks a volunteer to develop a blog strategy.
Women’s Rights
  • Fitness Hacks For Life needs assistance creating a fundraising strategy.
  • Media Matters for Women seeks help updating their WordPress website.

“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

You can apply for a one-hour Session or multi-week Project—even while lying on the beach!

Taproot thanks workers in all fields and hope you have a relaxing, happy Labor Day!
