Skilled Volunteering
Connecting people with their passions
Hundreds of SVP Seattle Partners have worked shoulder-to-shoulder with non-profit leaders to create change through our skilled volunteering program. SVP Seattle Partners share their talent and time with our non-profit partners, working collaboratively to increase each non-profit’s capacity to fulfill their mission, implement their programs, and serve their communities. This program also creates relationships between Partners and non-profits built on trust, shared work, and goals.
The Who
SVP Seattle’s skilled volunteering program works with our grantees, as well as additional non-profits who are part of a pilot to expand our work with non-grantees.
