Roers Volunteering Recap of 2024

Part of our mission at Roers is to be an active part of the communities where we live through our Give and Grow Program. One of our committees is Volunteering. Our Volunteering mission statement is “The Roers Volunteer committee will provide experiences for Roers employees to give their time and talents to non-profit organizations in our communities.” Our goal is to have one organized volunteering opportunity in each area, per quarter, depending on availability.

Later in 2024, we introduced a new employee incentive called Volunteer Time Off (VTO) which provided employees with 4 hours of VTO to use throughout the year. The VTO program allows employees to take time off during the workday to volunteer in the community. For 2025, each employee will receive 8 hours of VTO to use throughout the year.

We also launched a new webpage on our employee portal that shows ongoing volunteering opportunities in each area! This webpage was launched this fall and a QR Code is shared to all locations and job sites on how to access this page.

Here’s a recap of the volunteering opportunities our employees had this year!

– January: Care for Kids Radiothon in Fargo

– April: Earth Day Clean Up in all areas

– July: Roughrider Days Parade in Dickinson

– August: Backpack drive for United Way in Fargo

– October: Hope Blooms in Fargo

– December: Bell ringing in Fargo, Minot and Bismarck

We also had the pleasure of our employees using VTO this fall to volunteer during work hours that was not a Roers organized event. Check out there great examples of our marketing team and property management team using their VTO hours this fall.

– Ronald McDonald House: Baking goodies for families that are staying in the house while they are here for medical reasons.

– The Great North Pole: a local group that helps bring joy to families in need during the holiday season by packing and delivery daily essentials, food, and toys directly to their home.

2024 was a successful year for volunteering at Roers and we can’t wait to see what is in store for 2025!

If your organization has volunteer events/opportunities, we’d love to hear from you! Fill out our contact form here.
