Volunteerism

The heart of how we give back.

Volunteer

We’re not just in the community—we’re part of it. Supporting our communities by lending our expertise, skills, and time sits at the heart of SAFE’s culture. Volunteerism is one of the most meaningful ways we carry forward the credit union mission of people helping people. SAFE provides employees with 16 hours of paid time each year to use to support the causes they are most passionate about. Teams often volunteer together to build camaraderie, and every year we dedicate a full month to volunteerism to deepen our collective impact in the Greater Sacramento region.

Submit your volunteer opportunity.

We welcome nonprofits of all kinds to share volunteer opportunities with us. Our employees can support both team based projects and smaller individual roles, making it easy for local and remote staff to get involved. If you have questions, our Community Impact Team is here to help at [email protected].

Drives that make a difference.

Flag Drive

Our V.A.L.O.R. (Veterans And Loved Ones Resource) Employee Resource Group leads an annual flag drive, placing collection bins at our branches, headquarters, and the Aerospace Museum of California so community members can drop off worn American flags for respectful retirement. This effort honors veterans, supports our community, and brings people together in a meaningful act of respect and service.

Flag Drive

Small houses with big impact.

Our executive team and employees joined Habitat for Humanity of Greater Sacramento during our volunteer week to build playhouses!

The playhouses will go to new Habitat homeowners and their families, allowing their children to enjoy and start their own dream for what’s next. This initiative truly supports our philanthropic pillar of Affordable Housing, and we can’t wait for the next opportunity.
