What We Do
Iowa Shares is a statewide coalition of social change, environmental and cultural nonprofit organizations raising funds through workplace giving. Iowa Shares members give direct services and create progressive, long-lasting resources for our children and communities.
By addressing the root causes of problems, member organizations build better communities in Iowa and the world. Iowa Shares promotes a positive, progressive message that is empowering and inclusive of all people.
Cooperative fundraising through workplace giving is a low-cost, effective way to raise needed funds. It is easy for donors to give substantial gifts by utilizing payroll deduction. It offers more choices and increases the total amount given within the workplaces. It provides a major portion for many of the smaller organizations within Iowa Shares and augments special programs for other members.
