Time to Play Addresses Workforce Engagement, Board Recruitment, and Community Connection Gaps

New Orleans, LA — In a time when businesses are struggling with employee engagement, nonprofits face board recruitment challenges, and community members want meaningful ways to serve, Time to Play offers a powerful solution.

Created to bridge the gap between purpose and participation, Time to Play is an interactive community experience designed to connect businesses, nonprofit organizations, and civic-minded individuals in one dynamic space. More than a networking event, Time to Play creates intentional pathways for leadership, volunteerism, and long-term collaboration.

Solving Real Problems for Businesses

Many companies are seeking ways to strengthen employee morale, retain talent, and demonstrate authentic community commitment. Traditional volunteer days and networking mixers often fall short.

Time to Play helps businesses:

• Increase employee engagement through purpose-driven experiences

• Identify board placement opportunities for executives and emerging leaders

• Build cross-sector partnerships with mission-aligned organizations

• Promote a culture of volunteerism and corporate social responsibility

For new and growing businesses, the event provides visibility while aligning their brand with meaningful community engagement.

Supporting Nonprofits with Talent and Visibility

Nonprofits often struggle to find qualified board members, skilled volunteers, and corporate partners who understand their mission. Time to Play offers:

• Direct access to professionals interested in board service

• Exposure to new audiences and potential donors

• Opportunities to build long-term partnerships with businesses

• A platform to clearly communicate their mission and impact

Strengthening the Community

Community members frequently express a desire to serve but lack awareness of where to start. Time to Play simplifies the process by introducing participants to a wide range of local organizations in a welcoming, engaging format. Attendees leave with clear next steps for volunteering, board service, and deeper civic involvement.

“People want to make a difference,” says founder Ty Salvant. “Time to Play removes the guesswork and creates an environment where connection naturally turns into collaboration.”

By bringing together leaders, professionals, entrepreneurs, and nonprofits, Time to Play strengthens the local ecosystem—helping people find purpose, organizations find leadership, and businesses demonstrate meaningful impact.
