Volunteering in the Community

Clearwater is committed to being a force for good in the communities we serve by donating time, money, and action. All Clearwater employees receive up to 24 hours of paid time annually to volunteer for causes that matter to them.

Together, We Make a Difference.

Erika Sylvester

“I volunteer because I want to make a difference in my community. From volunteering with the Missoula Food Bank, Driving Meals on Wheels, or helping with an event for the weekend, volunteering not only brings me joy, but helps other members of our community.

When I deliver a meal to a person that is homebound, I may be the only person they see that day. I get to see the smile on their face, and know that they will have a healthy, hot meal for the day.”

Erika Sylvester, Financial Educator

Annually, at least 75% of Clearwater employees engage in community volunteerism.
In 2023, Clearwater employees donated nearly 2,900 volunteer hours to area organizations.
