Workplace Giving
Workplace Giving
Make your support go even further when you give through your employer! When you give to Habitat through your workplace, you access opportunities to multiply your gift and make an even greater impact for the families and communities Habitat serves. Below are a few ways you can partner with your employer and increase your impact.

WAYS TO GIVE THROUGH YOUR EMPLOYER
-
Payroll Deductions
Setup a one-time or recurring payroll deduction from your paycheck. These are deducted automatically and are tax deductible. All gift sizes matter and can add up over time for big impact. Plus, when you set up a monthly donation, you’ll join our Carpenter’s Club where you’ll receive exclusive invites to special events!
-
Giving Campaigns
Join company-led giving campaigns and direct your contribution to Habitat. You can start your own campaign by creating your own fundraiser, which allows you to personalize it and share why Habitat matters to you with your network.
-
Matching Gifts
Submit a matching gift request for your company to financially match your donation. This can make your donation go further by doubling (or tripling) your donation!
-
Volunteer Grants
Submit a volunteer grant request for your company to make a financial grant based on your volunteer hours. This enables you to make a difference through time, talent, and treasure.
-
Other Programs
Check with your employer if they offer other workplace giving programs. For example, some companies have giving benefits for retirees or employees’ spouses. Some employers partner with United Way to distribute funds to nonprofits. See if your local United Way campaign includes Habitat, and if not, you can submit a request to add Habitat to the list.
Other way to DEEPEN YOUR IMPACT
Donate Stock
By donating stock or other long-term appreciated securities such as bonds or mutual funds, you can save on taxes and make a bigger gift and impact!
