What are the benefits of donating leave?
A-2. These programs provide employees with a way to help Hurricane Katrina victims as an alternative or in addition to making a cash contribution. Many employees have extra vacation, sick or personal leave balances but do not have the financial resources to give, or just simply want to provide more to the Hurricane Katrina relief effort. Participation in a leave-donation program is another avenue to help victims go about the difficult task of rebuilding their lives.
