Corporate Volunteer Hours Matching Programs
Many companies have a Volunteer Hours Matching Program that will make donations to Childhood Cancer Foundation based on the number of hours you volunteer with our foundation. Companies such as Microsoft, Boeing and Amazon pay an hourly rate for your volunteer time. It’s easy for Childhood Cancer Foundation to benefit from these offerings. Simply submit your volunteer hours on your company’s employee volunteer site. A Childhood Cancer Foundation Staff Member will confirm these hours prior to payment from the company.
For example, Microsoft will donate $25/hour to our foundation when you volunteer with our organization. Please check with your Human Resources Department to confirm their participation in a Volunteer Matching Program.
If you have questions regarding these Programs, please contact us at kids@ccfsocal.org.
Does your company offer a volunteer hour matching program and you do not see it on our list? Let us know so we can update our info!
