"I try to give back whenever I can. I volunteered more when I was in college than I do now. I consider myself a top performer and good at time management. So, I accepted that to prioritize my time, I cannot volunteer like I used to. But when I read that Wayfair offers paid volunteer days, this was an incentive. As well as matched donations.
