Volunteer Incentive Program

Over the last few years, many companies also support local communities by offering volunteer support either through employees donating their time & presence at the charities or allowing financial incentive to employees to support in kind. If your company offers this, by participating, you are helping JCNJ twice, one by volunteering and other by your employer contributing towards the volunteer hours.

Please visit your company's internal website or contact your HR / Payroll personnel to see if they can support JCNJ. If you work for any of the above mentioned companies, please contact us and we can connect you with members who have supported us.
