Help Us Change The World One Hour At A Time

Berkeley Lab’s Government and Community Relations Office launched a service portal that offers Lab employees an easy way to learn about, choose, and sign up for volunteer opportunities in the community and with Lab-sponsored K-12 programs.  


The portal is well-aligned with the Lab’s commitment to public service, a core value of our stewardship campaign.  Employees who sign up for an account are helping to provide vital support to people, organizations, and communities in need, while also helping raise the visibility of the Lab and strengthening our reputation as a good neighbor and responsible community institution.   


To learn more about the portal and sign up for an account, visit this FAQ.  Thank you for helping us change the world, one hour at a time!
