Remember You Have 4 Hours Available to Get Out and Volunteer!

Remember you are granted up to 4 hours of agency time per fiscal year to do volunteer/community service work. This is a wonderful opportunity for you to represent the Agency as a caring organization and help spread the message of our mission to improve the learning outcomes and well-being of children and youth in central Iowa!



When you volunteer during work hours, remember: 
  • There must be at least three Heartland AEA staff members (you and at least two other staff) working at the same volunteer opportunity together. 
  • Staff members are encouraged to wear Heartland AEA-logo clothing or our “Heartland Cares” stickers that were created for this purpose. You can request stickers by contacting the Communications Department. (Please request your stickers so others can see who you are!)
 
  • Of course, you must approve your leave with your supervisor before taking the time off.
  • Volunteer leave should be recorded in the Leave Online system as Volunteer Leave. 
  • Finally, to celebrate your work, take a photo of your group during the volunteer activity and send it to the Communications Department with information about the activity and who was involved.
 
We’ve had great representation again this year, and we look forward to seeing more of you out before the end of June. Thank you for representing the Agency and serving our communities!
