Give Back Foundation
Give Back Foundation is a Madison, WI–based 501(c)(3) donor-advised fund that operates a giving platform and serves as a steward for workplace giving (notably the Combined Federal Campaign). The site describes its donor-advised services and mission to encourage more giving and provides organizational contact information.

Ideal Applicant
Registered charities (often national intermediaries or nonprofits participating in workplace giving) that can receive donor-designated funds or are part of federated giving programs.
Good Fit
- • Participation in workplace or payroll-giving programs (for example Combined Federal Campaign channels or national federations).
- • Membership or affiliation with known federations (United Way, Community Health Charities, America’s Charities, etc.).
- • Capacity to receive and manage mid-to-large grants and to accept donor-designated support.
- • A national or multi-state program footprint or relationships with donors who participate in the foundation’s platform.
Geography
Observed grants in the latest year reached recipients in 51 states, with a strong dollar concentration toward Virginia but an otherwise national distribution.
Recipient Variety
The latest year included 708 distinct recipients, many independent charities and national intermediaries; while many grantees recur, the absolute number of unique recipients is large.
New Applicants
Direct evidence of recipient turnover is limited but the latest year shows 62 new recipients (about 9% of grantees) and a public contact form exists; there is no formal application process, so new entrants appear possible but are likely dependent on donor designations or federation inclusion rather than an open competitive grant program.
