Frequently Asked Questions

CCM Cares is our commitment to our communities and our umbrella branding for all CCM philanthropic activities, including CCM Foundation support, volunteering, branch-led giving and other community relations efforts.

The CCM Foundation brings focus and measurement to CCM’s philanthropic efforts, supporting charitable organizations that address the pressing needs of women, youth, and Members of the Military. The Foundation also exists to support CCM’s most valuable asset, our employees, through emergency financial assistance.

The CCM Foundation is set up for 501c3 community organizations or employees facing hardship to apply for financial support. Each request received by the Board of Directors will be reviewed individually and funding decisions will be made on a case-by-case basis. Once decisions are made, the applicant will be notified.

The CCM Foundation is funded by ongoing voluntary donations through employee payroll deductions and fundraising initiatives.

Requests for funding from an employee in crisis will be reviewed by the Board of Directors. Each request received will remain confidential and funding decisions are based on a case-by-case basis. The CCM Foundation only dispenses monetary support and does not provide goods or services.

Employee in crisis payments are issued via check for the full amount before tax. Your W2 at the end of the year will reflect this grant as additional taxable earnings.

Contribution gift dollars are tax deductible when filing for your taxes the subsequent year. Contribution summaries will be provided to participating employees at the start of each calendar year.

We will have a formalized process in place for logging volunteer time later this year. For now, keep a personal record!
