Giving and Volunteering FAQ's

How does payroll giving work?

Payroll giving allows employees to donate directly to eligible nonprofits through their paycheck. They can set up one-time or recurring contributions, and those amounts are automatically deducted during payroll runs—no extra steps for HR or accounting. Each donation is recorded on the employee’s pay stub and giving history so they can track their contributions year-round. Employers can also encourage participation by setting company match percentages, per-employee caps, or eligibility rules. This not only simplifies charitable giving but also boosts engagement by showing employees the impact of their generosity right alongside their regular pay.

Can we manage VTO and volunteer events in the same place?

Yes. With Giving & Volunteering, you can promote company-sponsored opportunities, collect sign-ups, and track hours all within the same system employees use for payroll and time. Employees can request Volunteer Time Off (VTO) through the platform, and managers receive automatic notifications to approve or decline requests. Participation data, including hours logged and events attended, is stored in real time and can be sorted by department, team, or location. This eliminates the need for manual spreadsheets or paper forms and makes it easy to encourage and measure volunteer engagement across your organization.

Do we get reports for leadership, ESG/DEI, or grants?

Absolutely. The platform provides real-time dashboards that display donations, company match totals, volunteer hours, and participation rates. You can filter results by team, department, or location, giving you a clear picture of how your workforce is contributing. Reports are exportable for use in board packets, year-end summaries, ESG/DEI initiatives, or even grant applications that require proof of community impact. This visibility not only strengthens accountability but also gives leaders the ability to highlight your company’s social responsibility in public-facing materials.

Does this work for small to medium-sized businesses?

Yes. Whether you have 10 employees or 200, the software is designed to be user-friendly and scalable. Because giving and volunteering tools live inside the same platform your employees already use to view pay stubs or request time off, adoption is naturally high. Smaller teams benefit from streamlined processes without needing extra admin staff, while mid-sized businesses can take advantage of advanced reporting and company match programs. Seasonal or multi-location businesses also benefit from centralized tracking, ensuring participation is easy to manage across different workforces.
