Corporate Care Funds (Employee Assistance)

  • Corporate Care Fund Program for Employee Assistance Established 2009

    Corporations looking for a way to help employees during times of crisis have a solution through The Community Foundation's Corporate Care Fund program. Here’s how it works: A corporation sets up a Corporate Care Fund within The Community Foundation. The corporation and/or its employees continue to make tax deductible gifts to the fund over time. When individual employees face serious financial hardship due to natural disaster, life threatening or serious injury, catastrophic circumstance, or death of an employee or an eligible dependent, they can apply for assistance from the fund to help pay for essential living expenses including medical, housing, utilities and other basic expenses. The Community Foundation processes all applications for employee assistance.
