Uses - CSR for Small Business

Empower Your Small Business to Make a Big Impact

Don't let complexity hold you back. Groundswell makes it simple to launch robust corporate giving and volunteering programs your employees will love.

Make a big impact with:

Lightning-Fast Distributions

Did you know legacy platforms can take up to 120 days to distribute funds? With Groundswell, 100% of donations (and matches) are sent to nonprofits within 24 hours.

Easy Campaign Creation

Launch a giving or volunteering campaign in under five minutes. We’ve made it easy to set up, manage, and report on your campaigns, straight from your Groundswell dashboard.

Instant Donation Matching

Whether you're matching donations, volunteer hours, or both, we've eliminated the administrative hassle with instant and automatic processing of all eligible matches. You can make an even bigger impact with 2x or 3x matching.

Admin-Free Payroll Giving

Payroll giving should be easy. So we built it that way. No more monthly reconciliations, no more monthly invoices, and no more monthly reports.

Real-Time Reporting

Our real-time analytics dashboard and data API give you the insights to optimize your budget, engagement, and ESG reporting - all in one comprehensive platform

Volunteer Matching

Employees prefer to donate their time? Start a Dollars for Doers campaign and provide charitable grants for qualifying volunteer activities.

Make an impact in days, not months

When a disaster strikes, every minute counts. Nonprofits can’t afford to wait 120 days for funds. Our distribution timelines are 100x faster than legacy competitors, ensuring your donations reach nonprofits when they’re needed most. Add our industry-leading low fees, and you have a new gold standard for efficient giving.

Enjoy software that’s capable, not complicated

Design and launch campaigns in under five minutes from your Groundswell dashboard, allowing your team to start making an impact right away. Feature a curated list of related nonprofits to ensure contributions go where they’re needed most. Amplify generosity with 2x or 3x donation matching options.

Decrease your admin workload with automations

We've made donation matching and payroll giving easy. No more endless admin tasks, no monthly invoices to chase after, and no monthly payroll reconciliation. With automated matching, self-service payroll giving, and instant reporting, you can focus on what you love - designing impactful programs and driving engagement.

Include your entire workforce in your fundraising efforts

With seamless functionality and full features on both mobile and desktop, employees can easily access your fundraising campaigns from wherever they work - whether they spend all their time on the company intranet or don’t even have a corporate email.

See why our customers love us

"So simple to use and will make a huge difference."

I have worked for very large organizations of 50k down to 4k employees. They have always been hard to work with. I love that Groundswell is so super easy.

Senior Vice President, OneDigital

"Great platform used by over 70% of our associates!"

This tool has allowed us to rapidly expand our employee matching and employee gifting programs and has been well received by the associates. Groundswell continues to add new features that make the platform even more valuable to us. The partnership with CAF America to include international NGOs allowed us to expand to our India-based associates which has been very well received.

"Easy, impactful and fulfilling!"

Not only does Groundswell let you put corporate giving into the hands of employees, the user experience is seamless and the customer support is A+. The Groundswell team is always proactive about finding new ways for our company to leverage the app and the holidays/awareness month toolkits are especially helpful.
