Uncommon Giving

4 reviews

Uncommon Giving is a workplace giving and volunteering platform for companies that want a big social-impact program without the enterprise price tag — or the enterprise rollout. Employees get a modern, consumer-grade giving experience: donate to vetted 501(c)(3) nonprofits, respond to matching campaigns and disaster-relief drives, sign up for volunteer events, and track volunteer time off (VTO), all in one place. Administrators get their time back. Program setup, nonprofit vetting, donation processing, and receipting are handled by the platform, cutting program admin time by up to 90%. Donations are disbursed to nonprofits bi-weekly without large upfront DAF loading resulting in lost donation interest. Donations are not held for the month-plus cycles common with legacy platforms — so employees see their impact land fast. Companies use Uncommon Giving to run employee giving and matching programs, corporate volunteering and VTO, seasonal and disaster-response campaigns, and year-round social-impact reporting for leadership, ESG, and culture initiatives. What makes it uncommon: it launches in about two weeks instead of the industry-standard months, and it costs a fraction of what enterprise CSR suites charge — making workplace giving and volunteering practical for all companies, not just the Fortune 500. Employees who participate in workplace giving and volunteering programs are up to 5x more engaged, and Uncommon Giving is built to get more of them participating: less friction, more causes, faster impact. Uncommon Giving was founded by veterans of the workplace giving industry to make generosity accessible to every workforce.
