Support equality and sustainability where you work!

Community Shares offers a new kind of workplace giving campaign – based on employee choices. You (the donor) decide where your pledge is directed. 

Community Shares organizations address serious issues facing Wisconsin, including the environment, health care, education, poverty, mental illness, crime, homelessness, civil rights, and improved quality of life for children, families, women, the LGBT community, low-wage workers, the unemployed, and ex-offenders.

Community Shares is unique!
