Second Annual Volunteer Fair Hosted by Higher One Fosters Volunteerism in New Haven

[New Haven, CT – March 14, 2012]
- Higher One CARES (Community Action for Resources Education and Service), the community outreach group at Higher One, held its second annual Volunteer Fair on Tuesday.

The mission of the Volunteer Fair is to connect those interested in becoming more active in the community with organizations in need of support. The successful event attracted approximately 150 people comprised of the public, Higher One employees, and other companies and their staff who attended to learn how they can make a difference. Attendees had a chance to mingle and connect with prominent community groups while enjoying music performed by a quartet from Music Haven and refreshments donated by New Haven’s Elm City Market.
Nearly 20 non-for-profit groups were represented Tuesday, including:

  • All Our Kin
  • Community Foundation of Greater New Haven
  • New Haven Reads
  • United Way
  • Junior Achievement 
  • LEAP
  • Solar Youth
  • Boys and Girls Club
  • International Festival of Arts & Ideas
  • Neighborhood Housing Services of New Haven
  • YMCA

“We're grateful that Higher One is making a real, sustained commitment to New Haven—and encouraging their employees to put down roots in our community,” said Joel Tolman, Director of Development and Community Engagement at Common Ground, an environmental education center. “Local non-profits like Common Ground don't have enough opportunities to speak directly to potential volunteers, especially professionals who bring lots of skills and experience to the table. It's great that Higher One is helping to make that connection.”

“Through Higher One CARES, we are able to directly and positively impact the communities where we live and work.  Building on the strong economic benefits our presence brings to New Haven, our employees find meaning in contributing in other ways, too,” said Miles Lasater, co-founder and COO of Higher One.
