In the first ten months of 2020, employees and customers of Benevity\u2019s corporate clients donated $500 million of their own funds through Benevity \u2014 a 76 percent increase over last year \u2014 indicating an increasing desire from more people to take personal action to support critical societal issues.<\/p>\n<p>Corporate matching campaigns in support of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/Tracker?data=Ag9wQJOgfsD_WsJghYDKyGP92fVuBgHkKaWpWBD8tGgelG0qOrnJEPAIVkGUmF4WB3M3kSrvJWkaMFtnOoDejdYA6M0AC5YvfiA-O9ERYvbPk_zqLEsHR-_OXkPLvogCmpve2qSti5L6cwuPW2a256KUwf71CfMMAO14gBTXrWCbH4iLdbCa-NpS1uFR-XY9lEpGYP7rKlSzgU5TOrhnZw==\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">COVID-19 pandemic<\/a> and protests against racial injustice drove spikes in donations, with average total donation amounts rising by 150 percent in April and 215 percent in June. Benevity expects a record year for giving in 2020 as the last two months of the year (sometimes known as \u2018giving season\u2019) typically account for a large percentage of annual donations with both nonprofits and companies running seasonal giving campaigns for the holidays.<\/p>\n<p>Diving deeper into a year-over-year data comparison from January 1 though October 31, Benevity found:<\/p>\n<ul type=\"disc\">\n<li>\n          <strong>Overall p<\/strong><br \/>\n          <strong>articipation <\/strong><br \/>\n          <strong>in employee giving<\/strong><br \/>\n          <strong>,<\/strong><br \/>\n          <strong> volunteering <\/strong><br \/>\n          <strong>and positive actions<\/strong><br \/>\n          <strong>,<\/strong><br \/>\n          <strong> a<\/strong><br \/>\n          <strong>s well as<\/strong><br \/>\n          <strong> customer engagement initiatives<\/strong><br \/>\n          <strong> increased by 23 percent<\/strong><br \/>\n          <strong>.<\/strong> A year highlighted by systemic challenges inspired companies to expand their corporate purpose programs to include new types of opportunities and rewards that encouraged employees, customers and the public to take action. Over 235,000 more people engaged in giving, volunteering and\/or positive actions in the first 10 months of the year through companies.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul type=\"disc\">\n<li>\n          <strong>T<\/strong><br \/>\n          <strong>otal don<\/strong><br \/>\n          <strong>a<\/strong><br \/>\n          <strong>tions in 2020 surpassed 2019 totals.<\/strong> As of October 31, 2020, more than $1.6 billion had been donated through the Benevity platform, $200 million more than all of 2019. The biggest increases in giving came from individual contributions and corporate matching funds, each of which saw a 76 percent year-over-year increase. Corporate rewards, such as \u201cdollars for doers\u201d where employees earn charitable funds for tracking their volunteer time, increased by 25 percent. The average donation amount is nearly $140, including the donor contribution, corporate matching and corporate rewards \u2013 a 49 percent increase over last year.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul type=\"disc\">\n<li>\n          <strong>Volunteerism dropped by<\/strong><br \/>\n          <strong>30 percent<\/strong><br \/>\n          <strong> due to physical distancing requirements<\/strong><br \/>\n          <strong>.<\/strong> Employees logged 4.5 million volunteer hours through the Benevity platform compared to 6.4 million in the same period the year prior. April and May saw the most drastic reductions to volunteerism at -46 percent and -42 percent respectively. Mainly attributed to lockdowns, physical distancing and the cancellation of large corporate volunteer events, people had far fewer organized opportunities to give their time and skills. However, the year-over-year gap is beginning to close with only a 4 percent decrease in hours logged in the first week of November, due in part to an increase in the number of virtual volunteering opportunities available, as well as the expansion of corporate volunteer programs to include non-traditional forms of volunteering, such as random acts of goodness.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul type=\"disc\">\n<li>\n          <strong>A<\/strong><br \/>\n          <strong>n astounding<\/strong><br \/>\n          <strong> 250 percent<\/strong><br \/>\n          <strong> i<\/strong><br \/>\n          <strong>ncrease in positive action<\/strong><br \/>\n          <strong>s<\/strong><br \/>\n          <strong>tracked <\/strong><br \/>\n          <strong>by employees<\/strong><br \/>\n          <strong>,<\/strong><br \/>\n          <strong> mainly in response to COVID-<\/strong><br \/>\n          <strong>19<\/strong><br \/>\n          <strong>.<\/strong> Compared to the same period in 2019, 3.5x the number of individuals participated in activities through Benevity\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.benevity.com\/home\/employee-engagement\/missions\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Missions<\/a> module, which engages people in pro-social action. Most notably, people were tracking activities that helped them stay connected while apart, manage physical and mental stress, and support local business.

This year, many companies are foregoing holiday parties and gifts, and instead providing employees, vendors, customers and suppliers with charitable gift cards or donation matching dollars that they can give to any cause they feel passionate about, or are making grants with the savings from in-person events.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur hope is that while people continue to create positive change around some of the global and systemic societal issues, they will also remember that their local communities need more help than ever, especially as COVID has exacerbated many existing needs, such as for food security, education, employment, and both physical and mental health,\u201d said Bryan de Lottinville, Benevity Founder and CEO. \u201cAnd if helping strengthen your community isn\u2019t enough, neuroscience suggests that you should be giving back what you can at this time of year for your own good. 2020 has put a strain on virtually everyone and the fact is that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/Tracker?data=df_qdofHFooUMBfCoa8keH8MonemS4iBf3-2fIj1HE7oi8GR2oubxXfLQO0Gnic5uxZAtr57mOJ7XXHUcaFAeo1FuFSTp_KegE0ZSFFiCrJ88OrY3fR7goSAl1PDOkFeKnc3eJJuN-3QX84_xXhJrJ031XmbOgVnUKzzBlKy0c4=\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">kindness releases hormones like oxytocin<\/a> and serotonin that improve our mood, sense of connectedness and overall wellbeing.

By offering these people help, love, hope and support, we are making a real difference that has potential to save lives.
