Shining a light on the power of volunteers this National Volunteer Week

National Volunteer Week is a time to celebrate and recognize the incredible contributions of volunteers across the country who give their time, energy, and resources to make a positive impact in their communities. It’s a chance to show gratitude and inspire others to get involved and give back in their own, unique way.

Volunteers play a vital role in creating positive change in the world – it’s estimated that nearly 1 billion people around the world volunteer in some way, from supporting local schools and charities to responding to natural disasters and global crises.

Guided by purpose

At Adobe, we believe that the work done by volunteers and nonprofits is essential to building strong, resilient communities. We partner with local nonprofits to create positive outcomes in our communities, and in 2022, Adobe’s global employees volunteered over 150,000 hours, along with Adobe donating over $113M (cash and in-kind) to communities worldwide, to support 89,000+ organizations.

We launched Adobe Express for Nonprofits with the vision of supporting Nonprofits all around the world, giving them access to thousands of design assets and templates to quickly and easily create unique content that communicates and drives their missions. We are harnessing our creative and technological strengths to enable the world’s 10 million+ nonprofits to accelerate their mission, engage their donors, reach more people and drive greater impact.

This National Volunteer Week, we’re shining a light on some outstanding organizations and their volunteers.
