Giving Back to Our Community
This year, Visit Baltimore’ s employees found new ways to put others first and provide for those in need. The community service committee of the Engagement Team, a group of employees who apply to help find ways to uphold our values, led the effort by planning a number of outings to local nonprofits, such as Art With A Heart, Helping Up Mission and Paul’ s Place, using Visit Baltimore’ s allotted“ volunteer time off.”
At Art With A Heart, whose mission is to enhance the lives of people in need through visual art, our staff spent a few hours preparing materials for classes, working on a public art community project and helping create and finish art pieces for HeARTwares, the organization’ s social enterprise retail store.
