At Velocity Clinical Research, our goals extend beyond advancing medicine – we care deeply about advancing the communities we're a part of. Our success is intertwined with the wellbeing of the communities in which we operate.
By actively engaging with and supporting our local communities, we aim to create a positive and lasting impact beyond the boundaries of clinical research to enhance the overall quality of life for everyone. Our dedication to advancing both medical innovations in lockstep with our communities is rooted in our belief that progress requires a comprehensive approach that addresses the needs of individuals and society.
Volunteer Time Off (VTO)
Velocity employees are granted 8 hours of paid time off annually to volunteer with a registered 501(c)(3) organization of their choice. This empowering opportunity allows employees to actively contribute to causes they are passionate about and support organizations that align with their values. This initiative enables our employees to make a positive impact in their communities, empowering them to contribute their time, skills, and resources to create a better world
Effectively serving our communities goes beyond monetary donations and event sponsorships. We place great importance on the act of volunteering and spending time actively serving others. By engaging directly with community initiatives, we can create meaningful connections, understand community needs, and make a genuine impact. We believe that serving others is transformative, fostering empathy, compassion, and shared responsibility within our organization and beyond.
An Annual Tradition
#VelocityCares Day
In addition to VTO, all employees participate in #VelocityCares Day, an annual event where all Velocity employees join forces and venture into their communities to make a difference. On this dedicated day, our teams collaborate and actively seek out opportunities to give back to their local communities, in lieu of their normal day-to-day work responsibilities.
#VelocityCares Day serves as a catalyst for meaningful and impactful acts of service. It exemplifies our commitment to fostering a sense of unity and shared purpose among our employees while making a positive impact on the world around us. By engaging in team-based volunteer activities, we not only contribute to important causes but also strengthen our relationships with one another and create a stronger sense of community within our organization. Together, we harness the collective power of our diverse talents and resources to create lasting change.
