Join us for National Volunteer Week 2024 from April 21st to 27th to #GiveJoy and #GiveTogether with your community through volunteerism and have a chance to win $500.
Specific activities that focus on how volunteers are making a transformative impact are what distinguish this week from the rest. That's where we come in… Join in on the GivePulse #GiveJoy and #GiveTogether Challenge this year for National Volunteer Week, April 21 - 27, and show the world your community's impact. We are offering two challenges for all to get involved with for a chance to win $500!
Open to anyone who wants to give joy through volunteerism. We invite you to compete for a $500 cash award by submitting a video through social media and tagging us.
How to enter?
Create videos around the topics listed below, and submit them to us via social media by tagging us @GivePulse and using #GiveJoyChallenge to be entered. We also suggest using #NationalVolunteerWeek and #NVW for additional exposure.
1) A story of impact from volunteering.
2) Involvement and engagement on campus or in your community.
3) Highlight a campus or community partner National Volunteer Week event.
4) Showcasing what volunteers mean to your organization.
Award
The award recipients will receive a $500 cash prize, which will be announced the week of April 15 via social media, this website, and our bi-monthly newsletter. (subscribe here.)
Based on the above criteria, the GivePulse team will review and select the top five videos as our winners.

Open to all official U.S.-based nonprofit organizations. We understand hosting large volunteer events can take a lot of work... and a significant investment. We want to help offset the cost of hosting a National Volunteer Week event and give back to your organization.
How to enter?
