If you’re a business owner, odds are you already give back to your community. Like many charitably-minded people, your business likely sponsors events, makes in-kind donations, and donates cash to favorite organizations.
Many local business owners work with Aspen Community Foundation to give back to the community where they built their businesses and developed lasting relationships with employees and customers.
Aspen Community Foundation offers a variety of tools to help you build and grow your corporate philanthropy program, including:
- Corporate foundation. Establishing a corporate donor-advised fund helps you organize your company’s giving in a convenient, 501(c)(3)-qualified structure.
- Executive donor-advised fund. Offering this elevated employee benefit to your executive team can help activate your senior management’s community involvement.
- Matching gifts. Aspen Community Foundation can help guide your team in creating and administering a program that matches employees’ volunteer time and dollars.
- Grant making administration and strategy. You and your colleagues likely receive dozens of requests each month from community organizations requesting sponsorships and monetary donations. Our team can help you create and implement a strategy for responding to and evaluating those requests to align with your company’s goals for supporting and prioritizing causes.
- Employee giving and disaster relief campaigns. Aspen Community Foundation’s tools to receive and process donations can help you and your employees respond quickly and meaningfully to disasters and other urgent community needs.
Aspen Community Foundation is glad to help you deepen your business’s impact and connection to your community, customers, and employees by creating a philanthropy plan that supports causes that align with the wide range of your objectives.
