Our Partners

Through their award-winning advertising programs, businesses provide financial support for critical, yet underfunded, education, wellness, veterans, and environmental initiatives. EcoMedia, a division of CBS, has turned the advertising landscape into a catalyst for tangible social change. Volunteers of America works with EcoMedia on a variety of projects to improve quality of life in communities across the country.

Since 2011, The Home Depot Foundation has given more than $11 million to Volunteers of America to improve housing solutions for homeless veterans and their families.

HSBC, one of the world's largest banking and financial services organizations, has been connecting people to global opportunities since 1865. HSBC Bank USA has partnered with a number of nonprofit organizations to deliver programs that focus on education, community development and the environment. Through a mix of financial giving and employee volunteerism, HSBC Bank USA contributes to and works well with organizations that align with their goals. Their generous support has been invaluable in helping Volunteers of America move forward on expanding and enhancing the services we provide to veterans. With their help, we have launched a multi-year initiative to expand wraparound services for veterans, especially vulnerable veterans in targeted high-risk, high-need communities.

Juice Plus+ ® has been a strong supporter of Volunteers of America since 1988.

The Maximus Foundation has been supporting Operation Backpack for the past 3 years. Thanks to their support we have been able to continue serving thousands of students in need throughout Northern California and Northern Nevada. Students that have fallen on hard times can start school prepared thanks to the support of the foundation as well as the employees at Maximus Inc who put together 400 backpacks every year.

Volunteers of America is fortunate to have a partner like Wells Fargo who believes everyone should have a safe place to call home. In 2018 many pressures in the Sacramento area have continued to exacerbate affordability issues for both first-time home-buyers and renters – especially for those earning less income. The combination of housing supply challenges, increasing transitions to rentals and net gains of homeowners moving from more expensive Bay Area communities leave Sacramento struggling to find homes and even temporary shelter. Wells Fargo is at the forefront of funding organizations and programs that are actively seeking answers to the housing crisis. Kären Woodruff states, "We are excited to support new and creative ways to provide homes for those that want them." As an organization we are grateful for a caring partner like Wells Fargo.
