MAKE A LOCAL IMPACT THROUGH WORKPLACE GIVING
Workplace giving is one of the simplest and most powerful ways to show
your employees that your company cares about the community.
WHY START A WORKPLACE GIVING CAMPAIGN?
By partnering with United Way of San Joaquin County, employees can seamlessly donate a portion of their paycheck to support critical local causes. Better yet, many contributions are pre-tax, allowing employees to give without feeling the pinch in their take-home pay. And with many companies offering donation matching, every dollar given can have double the impact.
No matter the size of your business—whether you're a small local shop, a major corporation, or even a nonprofit—your workplace can join the ranks of businesses that run workplace giving campaigns, creating real change in our community.
Workplace giving not only supports the community, it strengthens your organization. It’s an opportunity to engage employees, foster teamwork, and boost morale, all while making a lasting difference. Together, we can create a stronger, more vibrant community for all.
GIVE LOCAL, IMPACT LOCAL
STRENGTHEN OUR COMMUNITY
By giving to United Way, you’re investing in the future of San Joaquin County. Your donation stays here, funding programs that lift up families, support education, and enhance health and well-being.
AMPLIFY YOUR IMPACT
Workplace Giving allows employees to pool their contributions, magnifying the collective impact we can have on the nonprofits that serve our neighbors.
BE A PART OF THE SOLUTION
Whether it’s helping children succeed in school, providing financial counseling for struggling families, or offering health services to those in need, your gift makes a tangible difference in the lives of others.
Imagine the ripple effect we can create by uniting our efforts – helping even more families, children, and individuals in our own backyard. We’re not just giving; we’re building a stronger, more vibrant community, one act of kindness at a time
EMPOWERING THROUGH EDUCATION
Sharing information about charitable organizations not only raises awareness but also deepens employees’ understanding of the challenges facing their community, inspiring them to take action.
STRENGTHENING EMPLOYEE CONNECTIONS
Running a workplace giving campaign goes beyond just giving back—it’s an opportunity for employees to actively contribute to the community’s well-being. Participation in campaign committees or events fosters teamwork, builds leadership skills, and boosts morale as teams set goals, collaborate, and achieve meaningful results together.
A SMART INVESTMENT
Charitable giving through payroll deduction is both simple and impactful. Employees and companies may also benefit from tax deductions or credits, making it a win-win for everyone involved. With the convenience of automatic deductions, supporting the causes that matter has never been easier.
BUILDING COMMUNITY LEADERSHIP
Workplace giving fosters a powerful connection between employers and employees, united by a shared commitment to improving the community. When businesses invest in their local area, they thrive alongside it—leading to stronger growth, a stable workforce, and increased loyalty. Communities that prioritize education, safe neighborhoods, and vital social services naturally attract outside investment and talent, making them desirable places for companies to grow.
CORPORATE RECOGNITION
Participating in workplace giving campaigns showcases your company’s dedication to making a difference. It highlights your leadership in community service to employees, customers, and the public. Businesses that run campaigns are often recognized by United Way, featured in events, media, and marketing materials, and gain positive visibility. This recognition can be leveraged in your company’s own communications—such as websites, press releases, and annual reports—to further amplify your commitment to social responsibility.
BOOSTING CUSTOMER LOYALTY
Customers notice when companies give back, and they’re more likely to choose businesses that support their community. By demonstrating your investment in the well-being of your local area, you build stronger customer relationships and earn lasting loyalty.
