Earn Choose Well points

In addition to improving one’s community, volunteerism can also benefit your well-being. Volunteering has been proven to decrease the risk of depression, boost self-confidence, lower stress, and help develop new relationships. That is why Choose Well is offering up to 500 points a quarter (2,000 total) towards your rewards and incentive.  

By utilizing the Volunteers In Partnership (VIP) platform, a systemwide program that supports caregiver volunteerism, a caregiver can earn Choose Well points. The VIP platform helps caregivers search for local volunteer opportunities, sign-up for events, log personal commitments, and request small donations for a favorite 501c3 nonprofit organization. 

How do I get started? 

Visit the VIP site (link below) and input at least one volunteer hour on a quarterly basis. 

How do I add my volunteer hours? 

  1. Click on your ministry’s logo below to login to the VIP platform.  
  2. Click on the Volunteer tab on the left hand side navigational bar. 
  3. Click on Submit Hours. 
  4. Complete the form for submission.

When will I receive my points? 

The 500 points will be automatically loaded into your Choose Well account on a monthly basis (once per quarter).
