“I think the idea to simplify corporate giving to put it in employee’s hands, and potentially make it a benefits offering for a company is extremely compelling.”

Groundswell Benefits
Retain & Attract Talent
In the race to roll out more differentiated benefits packages, Groundswell offers the ability to bankroll employee charitable giving through both gifting and matching – a perk that attracts values-driven employees and improves employer brand.
Easy Implementation
Unlike traditional matching platforms, Groundswell directs your matches automatically to an employee’s tax-deductible Personal Giving Account so they can give twice as much money to charity when and where they choose – eliminating the hassle of submitting receipts to CSR and chasing forms from HR.
Fully Tax-Advantaged
Employer contributions into the employee Personal Giving Account (powered by a Donor-Advised Fund) are fully deductible charitable contributions, and because the funds are deposited directly into Groundswell, employees never have to pay payroll taxes and their charitable dollars can grow tax-free.
Remote Work, Remote Impact
In today’s remote and hybrid work environment, Groundswell allows employees to direct a company’s charity where it matters most: where they live and work.
