Support Community Shares in the Franklin County Combined Charitable Campaign
September 17 – November 14, 2025
The Franklin County Combined Charitable Campaign is a chance to create real, local impact. When you give through Community Shares of Mid Ohio, you can directly support one or more of our 60+ member nonprofits—organizations leading the way on equity, access, and justice in Central Ohio.
Why Choose Workplace Giving?
If you’re looking for an easy and impactful way to give, workplace giving is one of the smartest options available. Here’s why it stands out:
- It is simple and streamlined. One form gives you access to hundreds of vetted nonprofits. There is no need to manage multiple accounts or donation receipts.
- You can give more without feeling it all at once. By spreading your donation across paychecks, you can commit to a larger gift that fits comfortably into your budget.
- There is no impact on your credit. Unlike credit card donations, workplace giving does not involve debt or interest. It is automatic and safe.
- You do not have to remember. Once you set it up, donations happen automatically with each paycheck. There are no missed months and no extra steps.
- You have real choice. Support causes that matter to you, from local food banks to global environmental organizations, all in one place.
Workplace giving turns your paycheck into a powerful tool for good. It is efficient, flexible, and designed to make your generosity go further.
