WELCOME TO VOW
The Story of VOW
Although my years working in the corporate sector were interesting and challenging, at the end of the day, I found myself unfulfilled. The passion I witnessed when I worked in the non-profit sector inspired me. Both the paid staff and the volunteers showed such great passion for the mission of the organization. My experience in being closely involved with the volunteers and seeing how rewarded they were by their volunteerism, motivated me to want to spread this enthusiasm, this passion. VOW was born as a means of connecting businesses with non-profits. Non-profits have needs for financial support, business expertise and volunteers. Businesses can offer all of these in exchange for the rewards that come from giving back!
**Due to precautions being taken for COVID19, there are currently less opportunities to volunteer. Yet the need for giving back is greater than ever. We are staying in close contact with non-profits as to their current needs for support.

Maggie's Shower Supports The Gratefulness Project
Who are two of the most giving people I know? Mark and Maggie! They are always giving to others. So it comes as no surprise that Maggie would choose donations for her shower. Mark and Maggie have been big supporters of The Gratefulness Project which is helping people who are dealing with food insecurity. All donations in Maggie's name will be used to help organizations in the Greater Boston Area that assist with hunger and food insecurity. Thank you for your generosity.
