“I am a volunteer with the Crohn’s and Colitis Foundation (CCF), an organization that has had a profound impact on my family. My daughter was diagnosed with Crohn’s disease at the age of 7. When I saw the Credly badges for volunteerism, I knew it would help me have a greater impact.”

“At Pearson’s Durham office, we work hard to create a welcoming and enriching community. There are opportunities for employees to volunteer, donate and fundraise. We have made meals for families in need and donated food to the Food Bank of Central and East North Carolina. We have hosted a toy drive, sorted through gifts with the Salvation Army, and written letters for people in need over the holidays. The positive results for the local community and volunteers are so worthwhile.”
