Learn how Deed can help your employees donate, volunteer, and give sustaining grants to nonprofits that uplift our diverse communities during Hispanic and Latino Heritage Month.

Supporting Hispanic and Latino communities

Each year, the United States observes National Hispanic and Latino Heritage Month
from September 15 to October 15.

This is a time to recognize that, while the histories and cultures of Spain, Latin
America, and the Caribbean are unique and diverse, there is so much that brings us
together, from language to food, from work to community. It’s also a time to celebrate the independence days of Mexico, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras,
Nicaragua, and Chile, which fall between September 15–18.

This month, let’s work together to uplift our Hispanic and Latino communities inside
and outside the workplace through giving, volunteering, and a positive social
impact. 

Here's how explore the holistic benefits of social impact by engaging employees in meaningful and impactful experiences.

What is Deed’s “Cause of the Month” initiative?

Deed launched our “Cause of the Month” initiative in response to the important moments we see happening in the world around us. With our toolkits, we aim to inspire our client-partners and rally employees to become volunteers, donors, and leaders by supporting causes they really care about. 

With “Cause of the Month,” we aim to bring greater context to periods of observance—from Pride Month to AAPI Heritage Month—such that anyone who reads our toolkit will have a clear plan of action for how to maintain their support today, tomorrow, for the rest of the month, and throughout the year. 

What will I get in every “Cause of the Month” toolkit? 

While every “Cause of the Month” toolkit has unique insights and engagement opportunities relevant to each particular cause, you can always expect us to cover certain areas.

For a better idea of what you’ll be getting, here’s what’s included in our toolkit: 

• Volunteering and giving opportunities in the U.S. and around the world.
• A calendar of awareness days.
• Employee and employee resource group (ERG) engagement ideas, as well as a walkthrough of how to craft a social impact campaign.
• Recommendations of worthwhile books, podcasts, and films.
  

Taking your social impact further during Hispanic and Latino Heritage Month 2024

It's one thing to affirm our commitment to diversity by writing good corporate policies and cause marketing. But it's another thing to engage our workforce in actions that make a tangible, measurable difference in the communities and causes we care about. 

Deed makes it fun and easy for millions of employees to share their time, money, and talent with causes they care about. We started as a viral volunteering app, and today our platform gives the world’s most inspiring brands—from Kyndryl to Ripple—one exceptionally-designed home for all of their purpose-driven activities.

Corporate grantmaking, employee donations/matching, diversity & inclusion, and employee resource groups (ERGs) are only the beginning. Because over the past three to five years, everyone’s expectations for Fortune 500 corporate social responsibility have radically changed. But with our trusted integration partners like Workday and PayPal, hand-in-hand customer service, and a collaborative product team, Deed’s platform moves at the speed of work.
