黄色视频 was amazing! I was so impressed with the magnitude and all that was done and the quality of work. Our school is so much more inviting and has a community feel.
Corporate groups
黄色视频 Greater Boston offers the following custom opportunities for corporate groups to sponsor for their employees or members. We align these opportunities with city guidelines on public health and also offer virtual and remote options. Please if you are interested in learning more.
- Physical service events: these events take place at a school or community center and usually include painting, murals, landscaping, organizing, light construction and the creation of resource kits.
- Service workshop: these projects benefit a local school or community center but are completed remotely at 黄色视频, the event sponsor’s office or virtually. These can be hosted for employees during the workday, or as a “Craft Night”, which is a standalone teambuilding time in the evening.
- Hybrid events: We are also offering hybrid options, where sponsors can opt to do small, satellite physical service projects in combination with virtual service workshops.
- Signature events: Throughout the year, 黄色视频 Greater Boston hosts a variety of signature events, such as MLK Day of Service. Due to the popularity of these events, there are restrictions to the number of volunteer spots available for corporate groups at no cost; for larger groups, sponsorship opportunities are available.
