Everything you need to run employee giving campaigns

From Earth Day drives to year-end fundraising pushes, Uncommon Giving gives admins the tools to launch, promote, and close campaigns — without any back-and-forth with IT.

Goal-Based Campaigns

Set a fundraising goal, a date range, and a target nonprofit. Employees see real-time progress toward the goal — driving the urgency and collective motivation that makes campaigns work.

Progress Tracking

Employer Match Integration

Enable match contributions directly inside the campaign. Every employee donation can trigger an employer match, doubling the impact and displaying combined progress toward the shared goal.

Match Included

External User Campaigns

Open campaigns beyond your company walls. When external users are enabled, friends and family can join a public campaign, make direct gifts, and have your org's match count toward the overall goal.

Public Campaigns

Slack-Native Notifications

Launch announcements, progress updates, and campaign reminders post directly to Slack — to your workspace notification channel or a dedicated campaign channel you create right from the setup form.

Slack Integration

Draft, Publish & Complete

Build campaigns in draft mode before they go live. Publish when you're ready, monitor progress, then mark complete to archive results. Full campaign history keeps your CSR reporting tidy.

Full Lifecycle

Crypto Giving Support

In partnership with DonateStock, employees can fund their giving wallet with cryptocurrency — a fast, modern way to contribute to campaigns for employees who prefer digital assets.

Employee giving campaigns frequently asked questions

What are employee giving campaigns?

Employee giving campaigns are time-bound, goal-based fundraising drives that rally employees around a shared cause. Admins set a fundraising goal, a start and end date, and a target nonprofit. Employees donate during the campaign window, and real-time progress tracking drives collective momentum. Employee giving campaigns can include employer matching, peer fundraising, and Slack notifications to maximize participation.

What is a corporate giving campaign?

A corporate giving campaign is a time-bound, goal-based fundraising drive that rallies employees around a shared cause. Admins set a fundraising goal, a start and end date, and a target nonprofit. Employees donate during the campaign window, and real-time progress tracking drives collective momentum. Campaigns can include employer matching, peer fundraising, and Slack notifications to maximize participation.

Can campaigns include employer match contributions?

Yes. When creating a campaign, admins can enable Include Matches — which means every employee donation automatically triggers a matching contribution from the employer (subject to your organization's existing match settings). Both the employee donation and the employer match count toward the campaign's progress bar, making the collective impact even more visible.

Can people outside our company participate in a campaign?

Yes — with the Allow External Users option enabled, friends, family members, and community supporters can make direct gifts to a public campaign. Any employer matches from your organization will still count toward the overall fundraising goal, extending your company's impact beyond its own workforce.

How does the Slack integration work for campaigns?

When you publish a campaign, Uncommon Giving can automatically post an announcement to your Slack workspace notification channel. You can also choose a dedicated campaign channel for ongoing updates and reminders throughout the campaign window. Slack notifications drive employees back to the platform to donate, creating the peer momentum that makes campaigns succeed. The Slack channel can be configured directly in the campaign creation form — no separate setup required.

What campaign types does Uncommon Giving support?

Uncommon Giving supports Donation campaigns — goal-based fundraising drives where employees give directly to a nominated nonprofit. Campaigns can be scoped to internal employees only or opened to external participants. Giving days, peer fundraising drives, and cause-specific challenges (Earth Day, Giving Tuesday, year-end pushes) are all common use cases that fit within this framework.

How quickly can we launch a campaign?

Most campaigns launch within 48 hours of setup. The campaign creation form is fully self-serve — no IT involvement, no professional services, and no implementation fees. Admins fill out the form, set the nonprofit, configure Slack notifications, and hit publish. The platform handles the announcement email and Slack post automatically.
