Corporate giving software is the system a company uses to run employee giving, donation matching, volunteering, grants and impact reporting from one place, so every program shares the same records.
Uncommon Giving is corporate giving software built for companies with 100 to 10,000 employees. Employee giving and volunteering starts at $5,000 a year and can launch in as quick as 48 hours. Corporate grants management starts at $2,400 a year. Implementation starts at $0 for both.
Every program runs on the same platform, so HR, corporate social responsibility (CSR) and finance teams all work from one set of records.
Each employee gets a donor-advised fund (DAF), a tax-advantaged charitable account they control. They fund it through payroll deduction, a one-time contribution, or an employer grant, with no minimum balance. Payroll giving deposits automatically each pay period.
Set the match ratio, the annual cap per employee, eligible nonprofits and the request window once, and matches run from there. See employee giving and matching.
A Dollars for Doers program turns volunteer hours into cash grants to the nonprofits where employees serve. Employees log hours and request the grant, and admins approve it in the same system.
Application intake, rubric scoring, budget pools and payouts for corporate grants, scholarships and sponsorships. Uncommon Giving takes 0% of grant dollars disbursed.
Run time-bound drives, disaster relief appeals and giving days with Slack notifications. Explore campaigns.
Dashboards show participation, giving totals, match spend, volunteer hours and cause breakdowns, with PDF and CSV exports for board and environmental, social and governance (ESG) reporting.
Employees see their wallet balance, the match they have left this year, the next volunteer event and their own impact on one home screen. Giving to any of 1.8M+ vetted nonprofits takes a few clicks.
Grant applications come in through your own forms, reviewers score them against a weighted rubric, and awards draw from department budgets. Grant programs typically take about two weeks to set up. See grants management.
Admins see total giving, users joined, wallet transactions and volunteer hours on one overview, then drill into funding, matching and payroll. See reporting.
In a typical match program, an employee donates, files a match request and waits. With the giving wallet, the money is already in the employee's account before they pick a cause.
Payroll deductions, one-time contributions and employer grants for milestones, anniversaries or campaigns all land in the employee's DAF.
The employee sends grants from the wallet to any 501(c)(3) in the 1.8M+ vetted nonprofit database.
The platform disburses each grant, records the transaction and issues the tax receipt. The wallet stays with the employee after a job change.
DAF contributions are irrevocable and must go to a qualifying nonprofit. Read about giving accounts.
