Workplace giving campaigns are a fun way to unite your company’s employees around a common goal and provide an opportunity for employees and company leadership to work together to inspire charitable community investment. Inviting employees to give through paycheck contributions benefits the community while allowing employees to choose their favorite charitable recipients. Payroll deducation makes it easy and efficient to make tax-deductible donations that are taken directly ot of your paycheck and distributed to charities in a cost-efficient manner that reduces their administrative and fundraising burden.

 

Employer Matching Gifts

One of the easiest ways to increase your gift to the Arizona Foundation for the Future of Nursing is through an employer matching gift program. Talk to your employer or human resources department to see if they participate in such a program or would be willing to match your donation through other avenues.

This is a great option for volunteers who cannot financially support their favorite non-profit but have the time to do so and still wish to earn money to support their cause.

 

Corporate Incentive Grants:

Employee grants help reward and praise your internal volunteer champions. Employees that have shown a great effort to support your overall initiative or those that have met certain criteria throughout the quarter or financial year can receive cash lump-sum grants to go toward their cause.

 

Dollars for Doers:

Support the community and your employee’s volunteer efforts by providing grant money for the number of hours they volunteer for a chosen cause. Once they apply for this grant, a donation in their name will be sent to their favorite cause.
