April is National Volunteer Month, and we are shining a spotlight on some of the amazing nonprofit organizations our Xplorers are passionate about. As a creative collective that celebrates diversity and seeks to make a positive impact, giving back to our community is a core part of who we are, both as an organization and individually. Here are a few places that are benefitting from our team's time and talents:
Bryan shared his support for CRY America - a global children’s rights organization working to create lasting change in the lives of underprivileged children through programs focused on education, healthcare, child protection, and more. Bryan says their holistic approach to empowering youth is super inspiring.
Elizabeth spends time at Open Books, a nonprofit providing free books and literacy support to under-resourced communities.
Charissa's contributions help sustain the work of the Ronald McDonald House, which provides a home-away-from-home for families with children receiving medical treatment.
And rounding things out, we've got Angeliz who's supporting two international organizations - Thaakat Foundation and Cuatro por Venezuela. Thaakat empowers underserved communities in India through education, healthcare, and economic development, while Cuatro por Venezuela supports Venezuelans in crisis by providing food, medicine, and other essential resources.
At Xpedition, we encourage volunteering by giving dedicated days off to and organizing times for our team to volunteer together. We’re also proud to use our platforms to share the organizations our Xplorer fam dedicates their energy to in an effort to make the world a better place. If any of these orgs speak to you, we encourage you to look into volunteer opportunities in your local community. Every bit of support can make a huge difference!
