Employee Assistance Program Fund
How our EAP funds work.
We’ve perfected the art of establishing and maintaining a successful Employee Assistance Program (EAP) fund. As an efficient third-party administrator, we independently manage all fund activities – including accepting donations, objectively reviewing grant applications, and awarding and distributing grants – while also maintaining legal and regulatory compliance.
An Employee Assistance Fund is a tax-deductible charitable solution that can provide emergency assistance to employees when they need it most.
Fund Design
We’ll help you configure the fund to meet your company’s needs, with a unique fund name, specific eligible events and expenses, and a defined charitable class (those who can apply for a grant).
Build Donations
Grow the EAP fund through both corporate and individual contributions. Tax-deductible donations can be made through a variety of methods — credit/debit cards, payroll deduction, and more.
Award Grants
Eligible individuals complete an application, then CCF and its local partner process and evaluate all employee applications to ensure privacy and equity. Once applications are approved, employees receive financial assistance through payments to vendors.
Measure Impact
An EAP advisor helps you maximize fund success, and our fund diagnostics dashboard provides important metrics to keep you informed and empower you to make strategic decisions.
Reasons to Consider an Employee assistance Program Fund
- Unforeseen personal hardships can wreak havoc on those impacted emotionally — and financially. Our EAP funds can provide your team members with aid in difficult times.
- It takes only one disaster to cause severe devastation. EAP funds can lift some of the financial burden for impacted employees.
- Following an unforeseen disaster or personal hardship, our Employee Assistance Program funds award tax-free grants to employees, providing essential financial assistance on the path to recovery.
