Intel Employees – Declare your local volunteer hours

reid — Tue, 05 May 2009 23:55:39 +0000

When Intel employees volunteer more than 20 hours a year for SMILE, Llewellyn, Sellwood Middle or Cleveland, those organizations qualify for an Intel Volunteer Matching Grant, but only if Intel employees record their hours in the program website at their work. If you work for Intel or know of a neighborhood Intel employee who volunteers for SMILE or the public schools, be sure to go to the internal-to-Intel volunteer website to record your SMILE volunteer hours.

The schools can receive between $200.00 and $25,000.00 of Intel grant funding in 2009. That’s a lot of potential money in a tight economic year. As a nonprofit, SMILE is eligible for less grant money than the schools, but certainly enough to help keep the lights on in the SMILE Station, to help fund Sundae in the Park, to keep the website hosting paid and to help publicize about neighborhood issues. These include things such as the Sellwood Bridge, the Light Rail, the sewer upgrades and the Spokane Bike Boulevard.

Just search for Sellwood, Llewellyn or Cleveland on the internal volunteer website at Intel. Look up Reid Kells in the Intel directory and contact him at work if you have more questions. If you know of an Intel employee in the neighborhood interesting in volunteering, please remind them that their five hours on May 16 in Westmoreland Park, from 9am-2pm, helping with the neighborhood cleanup, will help SMILE keep going through the Intel Volunteer Matching Grants program.
