Community benefits from employee volunteerism
The SCORE science camps and Imperial Community Center each received $500 donations from Farm Credit Services of America (FmCSA), thanks to volunteer hours put in by their employees. When FmCSA employees record volunteer hours in their communities, their employer matches hours with dollars, which then are given back to the community.
