TTT that idea is coming to pass. We have a supermarket chain in Central NY,
Wegman's, who give their employes paid time off for community activities. It
was written up in our newspaper not too long ago. I don't remember
everything the employees do, but I remember that some of them helped tutor
school children.

I think there are some more firms doing it, but the memory is vague.
