More Than Volunteers: Partners in Impact

16 June 2026

Many companies treat volunteering as a once-off event — worthwhile, but fleeting. Micron Technology and CampusImpact take a different approach, aiming to make meaningful impact by showing up consistently.

This partnership is part of Project V, co-led by NCSS and NVPC, which demonstrates how corporates can provide long-term volunteers to serve at social service agencies.

A Programme Built Around the Children 

Each month, Micron volunteers join CampusImpact's Study Buddy after-school programme for Play Day, helping children with homework and activities that build self-esteem, emotional regulation, prosocial behaviours and resilience. 

Over time, children who were engaged grew in confidence. Those who struggled in group settings began taking the lead. For volunteers, returning to familiar faces each month turned a corporate commitment into something more personal.

 What Showing Up Looks Like

Every session brought its own meaningful moments, from shared laughter to the small interactions that grew into genuine connections. It was a privilege for Micron’s volunteers to witness the child’s growth.

I am thankful to Micron volunteers because they are very friendly towards me and my CampusImpact friends. They also help us learn new things and engage us in fun activities!

In 2025, 59 Micron volunteers contributed over 260 hours of their time, supporting 156 service users. Looking ahead, Micron plans to introduce STEM-based activities to CampusImpact, drawing on its engineering expertise to spark curiosity and digital literacy among the children.
