START A CAMPAIGN

Thank you for supporting our community – both Columbus and Central Ohio. Your company provides employment opportunities in the community and probably supports several local charities through donations and sponsorships. We appreciate your involvement in helping to improve our community.

With the help of Community Shares of Mid Ohio (CoSMO), you can take your community involvement and your company’s philanthropy to the next level through workplace fundraising.

Workplace fundraising allows your company to:

  • Diversify your community investments
    You diversify your workforce, products, suppliers and more so why not diversify your community investments? Community Shares allows you to support a wide-range of local charities and leverage the investments your company makes to improve the community while keeping the process simple.

  • Increase employee involvement
    Community investment through payroll contribution allows employees the opportunity to take ownership in improving their community. By offering CoSMO and its members as an option to your employees, your company increases its philanthropic impact, employee involvement with their community and positive morale by allowing everyone to participate in community investment and improvement.

  • Contribute in an efficient, easy and cost effective manner
    Community Shares of Mid Ohio does all the heavy lifting for you. Now how many partner companies can you say that about?  We work with you to set up a workplace fundraising campaign that is tailored to meet the needs of your company and employees. We also provide all the materials for your campaign: brochures, pledge cards, instructions, how-to guides and giveaway items. All you have to do is set a timeline, distribute the materials, encourage your employees to participate, collect the pledge cards and send Community Shares the contributions. If it still sounds a bit overwhelming, we’ll be available to assist every step of the way and have provided lots of resources here to assist you in having a successful workplace fundraising campaign.

  • Invest with confidence
    While investing in the stock market can be a game of chance, making a community investment through Community Shares of Mid Ohio guarantees a return. For over 15 years, we have been providing critical revenue to local charities throughout Columbus and Central Ohio. All members of CoSMO have gone through a member application and review process before being accepted as members. We certify all our members meet local, state and federal regulations as non-profit organizations.
