Purpose

GreenPoint Ag recognizes the vital role that charitable organizations play in the communities where our employees live and work and encourages all employees to become involved by lending their voluntary support to programs that positively impact our communities. Therefore, GreenPoint Ag has established a program to support the organization’s charitable giving.

 The following policy is in place to ensure that all donations are coordinated and aligned with our corporate social responsibility strategy and business goals, while maximizing the opportunity for corporate visibility, fostering long-term business relationships, and remaining within our budget and resource limitations.

Contributions

GreenPoint Ag’s charitable giving program, GreenPoint Gives, was established to support the work of charitable organizations and to encourage employee giving by doubling the impact of our employees’ community contributions.

 The program is run through the online charitable giving platform, Blackbaud, and provides a dollar-for-dollar match of employee contributions up to a maximum of $1,000 per employee per fiscal year until the company’s annual maximum of $100,000 has been met. Tax deductible monetary donations include donations by credit/debit card, Paypal or payroll deduction.

Employee Eligibility

GreenPoint Ag will match contributions made through Blackbaud by all full-time, part time and seasonal employees who are actively employed with the organization. Temporary workers are not eligible for the program.

Eligible Organizations

With an open match program, GreenPoint Ag allows for employees to personally choose organizations that are meaningful to the well-being of their community. Organizations must be recognized by the Internal Revenue Service as 501(c)(3) tax-exempt. GreenPoint Ag reserves the right to verify the eligibility of any contribution prior to paying a matching grant or discontinue eligible matching for any organization that it feels violates the values outlined in its community investment program.

 GreenPoint Ag is committed to fostering, cultivating and preserving a culture of diversity equity and inclusion and will not support politically affiliated organizations or organizations that discriminate based on race, gender, ethnicity, or creed. GreenPoint Ag does not support donations to the general budget of faith-based organizations; however, community enhancement programs operated by these organizations are eligible for the matching program.

To have an organization reviewed for matching, email community@greenpointag.com.
 

The interpretation, application, and administration of the charitable gifting program will be determined by GreenPoint Ag, and its decisions shall be final. GreenPoint Ag reserves the right to amend, modify, or discontinue the charitable matching program, in whole or part, at any time without notice. All information regarding contributions made by employees will be treated confidentially.
