Problem
Traditional corporate giving is often a top-down decision, leaving employees disconnected from the company's charitable efforts. Communication is one-way, engagement is hard to measure, and the impact feels distant, making it difficult for companies to build a genuine culture of giving.
Solution
Actnation provides a bottom-up corporate giving platform where employees have a direct voice in how company donations are allocated. The company sets a giving budget in a Company Wallet, and employees vote on the causes they care about in recurring cycles. Donations are then paid out transparently to the causes with the most support, with no hidden fees or middlemen. The platform also includes a corporate gifting feature that automates charitable gifts for employee milestones, allowing individuals to choose causes that are meaningful to them. This approach works whether companies focus on corporate giving, payroll giving, or a combination of both.
Target Audience
Primary customers are HR and Finance leaders at values-driven companies looking to improve employee engagement, build a positive culture, and make corporate social responsibility more meaningful and participatory. The platform is adaptable for companies from 5 to 500+ employees.
