Each year, LDF is fortunate to receive the support of dozens of companies and thousands of their employees through Workplace Giving Campaigns. Funding from Workplace Giving Campaigns support LDF’s litigation, policy advocacy, community organizing, and public education efforts. LDF uses these tools to bring about permanent, structural change in each of our four programmatic areas.
Thank you for your interest in creating a company-led Workplace Giving Campaign that includes LDF. We’ve made the process of setting up an LDF Workplace Giving Campaign easy by creating a customized toolkit with ready-made materials that you and your employees can use.
