Workplace Giving

Payroll contributions are an easy and efficient way to make tax-deductible donations.

Make your lifesaving gift or volunteer hours go twice as far by getting a match from your company! Send in a matching form with your donation next time you donate to Joybound. Your company’s HR department should be able to provide forms or know if a workplace giving program exists.

Joybound has many programs, in addition to core rescue and adoption efforts, that may meet your company’s donation-match criteria, including the Pet Hug Pack®, and partnering with Joybound.

Honor Wall

The honor wall is adorned with a growing collection of customized tiles honoring two- and four-legged friends who have touched our lives. Tiles are available for a $250 donation. The tile will be permanently displayed in the public garden at Joybound’s headquarters in Walnut Creek, California, plus each donor has the option to receive a complimentary replica tile* for personal use. Every 6″ x 6″ tile accommodates a full color photo, logo, or work of art with a name and phrase of your choice.

There are a limited number of wall tile spots available. Questions? Please call (925) 296-3156 or email [email protected].

*Pursuant to IRS regulations, the tax deductible portion of the donation is $210 if a replica tile is included.
