Donate to a Cause
Support the causes that are important to you by donating to campaigns, nonprofits, and impact funds.
You can also request a matching gift from your company at the time of your donation to increase your impact when your company has an active matching gift program. Matching gifts for recurring donations are requested automatically with each future donation recurrence. Matching gift program limits and eligibility apply.
Because campaigns are fully customizable, their individual look and feel may vary. Based on campaign customizations, you may be able to donate to specific nonprofits and/or impact funds. For example, a campaign may offer several impact funds, and you can allocate amounts among them.
You can view your donations in your Profile.
