GreatAmerica is committed to building a strong community, supporting sustainable activities, and promoting good will. In addition to its GreatAmerica Donor Advised Fund established in 2001, the GreatAmerica Employee Advised Fund will essentially double GreatAmerica charitable giving in the community. Combined, the funds are expected to provide more than $1 Million to projects in Cedar Rapids and Iowa City each year.
As a private company, we see our social and economic objectives as intertwined. Our social spending improves the quality of the business environment where we operate, and this benefits our employees’ lives and families. We feel the health of our local workforce materially impacts our potential competitiveness.
This fund is directed by GreatAmerica employees, putting charitable giving choices directly in the hands of individual workers. Supported activities reflect their personal beliefs and values.
