No you don't need one, but if you want to make charitable donations on your company's behalf, you could create a company profile. In addition, it may help you to have your company Workplace Giving Account associated with a separate company profile, so as to only see payroll deductions in your account rather than all transactions that you make on your personal profile.

Yes. When you manage a profile in addition to your personal CivChoice profile, such as for a nonprofit, you must switch between your personal profile and your nonprofit profile in order to perform various transactions.

For example, if you want to redeem a donation given to your nonprofit, you must be using CivChoice as your verified nonprofit profile to have access to the redeem action.

Most IRS registered 501(c)(3) organizations already have a profile created on CivChoice. Claiming your nonprofit's existing profile is simple. First, determine which individual in your nonprofit will administer your organization's CivChoice profile. That individual will need to create a personal profile before claiming the organization's profile.

Once the personal profile has been created, this individual can then visit your nonprofit's profile and follow the instructions for claiming the profile at the bottom right-hand section of the page.

Redeeming your funds is easy once your nonprofit's profile has been claimed on CivChoice. After the profile is claimed and verified, you will receive a notification via email whenever a donation is made to your organization, including donor information if the donor has agreed to provide it. To redeem funds, just click on the Withdraw Donations link in navigation bar at the top of your profile page and put the donation to work for your good cause. It's as easy as that!

Work Place Giving is a partnership with CivChoice and a company that allows employees to fund their accounts on CivChoice through automatic payroll deductions. when employees are paid, amounts that they choose are deducted from their paychecks just like deductions for other benefits, and the amount is deposited in the employee's CivChoice account, where it is available to give to any nonprofit organization in the United States.

If you work for a company that has a workplace giving plan with CivChoice, ask your HR department to help you get started. If your company isn't currently participating, ask them to contact us to help add workplace giving to your company's benefits package.
