What a blessing to all!

We've been on the receiving end of Benevity - and have been blessed by donations. Our donors like giving anonymously and their donations have made a big difference. They like that it was simple for them just to pick a cause that they wanted to support and Benevity does all the work for them. With automatic payroll deductions - they take how much you want to donate and send it where you want it to go. It's as simple as that

The only thing that we didn't like was not being able to thank the people that donated to us but that what the donor likes about Benevity that their donation is anonymous. So it's a win - win.

We wanted a better way to manage our company matching for employee charitable contributions and Benevity was the answer. It provides consistency in determining the criteria for a qualifying donation, visibility for the employee on how much they have contributed throughout the year and visibility on when their match has been paid. Overall, the experience has been great from both my perspective as an HR stakeholder and as an employee user.

Last year, we starting using the Benevity platform as a platform to formalize our charitable giving match program where the company matches up a certain dollar amount of an employees donations to eligible nonprofits. While I was not directly involved in the rollout of the program, I saw the impact of moving to this platform over our previous tracking methods and this was much better. Additionally, as a user of the platform to document my donations and receive the company match, I found Benevity to be very user friendly. It was clear what I needed to do and easy to see when the company match had been completed.

No personal complaints for this software. When employees had issues with the website, there was nothing we could do to troubleshoot from an HR or IT perspective so we had to refer them to work directly with support at Benevity. Fortunately, this was not a frequent occurrence.

Nothing. They are useless. They have not released our money after over a month, almost 2 months. We are small school in Puerto Rico in desperate need of funds. We have a small amount that was donated to us in Benevity and they refuse to release the funds to us. Their customer services is non-existant.

They have held our donations and have not been responsive to our requests for release. We had one bank account and we opened another bank account just so we could get our funds released. $10,000 was donated to our small school in Puerto Rico. We desperately need this money and Benevity will not release our money to us. This company isn't even located in the US. It is very suspicious to me.

You have the ability to have donations sent via a direct project.

There is zero direct support and you money sits in their accounts for months without being distributed. Do no use this for any project with any kind of timeline. You will be left holding the bill while Benevity holds your funds for months on end despite your donors sending receipts form their gifts.confirmijg funds are ready and available to be sent.

It is easy to navigate and I tend to teach my friends how to log their volunteering time.

I like that Benevity connects the company and its employees to various nonprofits that are vetted in the system. It makes it so easy to set up volunteering events in the system and organize fun volunteering events for employee engagement.

I don't like that you can't delete volunteering hours in the system if you mess up.
