Employee giving solutions that match your needs

Donation matching:

Configure and launch a donation matching program in just minutes. Easily update matching parameters whenever needed.

Corporate campaigns:

Whether the goal is to stir up some competition internally or respond to a disaster externally, corporate campaigns help drive engagement.

Volunteer matching:

Stretch your budget further and reward employees that put in the time with a Dollars for Doers volunteer match program.

Charitable gifting:

Feeling extra generous? Launching a new program? Deposit charitable funds directly into employees’ personal giving accounts.

It’s estimated that $4 to $7 billion of
eligible employee donations go unmatched every year.

Groundswell exists to close that gap.

Instant donation matching

Unlike competitor platforms, which often take up to 90 days to process a donation match, Groundswell matches employee donations instantly. Yes, instantly.

Next day distribution

We thought it was weird that legacy CSR platforms take 30 days to send donations to charity, so we fixed it. Now, 100% of Groundswell donations are sent to the charity within 24 hours.

Admin-free payroll giving

Nobody likes an inbox full of invoices and a task list full of monthly reconciliations. So we built a platform that eliminated them, freeing you up to focus on the things that really matter.

The lowest fees in the industry

Legacy CSR platforms charge between 2.9 and 7% for transactions. We built a better system that costs us less - savings that we passed on to you with our flat 1% distribution fee.

Modern Philanthropists use DAFs

Empowered Giving

Donor-Advised Funds (DAFs) provide tremendous flexibility for people looking to make charitable contributions. They give individuals the ability to maximize their tax reduction strategies, while also providing time and space to formulate an effective approach to philanthropy.

Groundswell's Personal Giving Accounts are powered by DAFs. Employees can make charitable contributions, receive immediate tax deductions, and then allocate their donations to their chosen charities over time. And the benefits don't end there. Employees can take their DAFs with them if they leave the company, just like a 401K.

Employees can give how they want:

Payroll
(no fees)

ACH
(no fees)

Credit Card
(standard processing fees)
