Employee Giving Program

Did you know that many companies have Employee Giving Programs that will match charitable contributions made by their employees? And that some companies have foundations that provide grants to charities if an employee requests it?

Employee Giving Programs and foundations can be found in companies of all sizes.

It’s simple – contact your H.R. Department and ask!!

• In most cases, it’s just a matter of filling out a simple form.
• We’re here to help – if you need help with your form or grant application, contact our Manager of Development, Nirm Blatchford, and she will be able to assist you with filling out the form.
• Your company doesn’t have a program? Maybe it’s time you asked them to put one in place!
• Also ask about a Volunteer Program - some companies will donate money to organizations where their employees volunteer.
• Successful applications may count towards your team’s fundraising total!

If you have any further questions or need help with an application, please don’t hesitate to contact:
