AMD's Employee Giving Program

AMD makes volunteering pay off!

Through AMD's Employee Giving Programs, the company supports employee gifts of money (Matching Gifts) and time (GIVE) to non-profit agencies and schools throughout the U.S. and extends the reach of AMD's corporate giving beyond our site communities. By matching employee gifts, employee and company resources are leveraged for maximum community benefit. Through GIVE, AMD further demonstrates its commitment to community involvement and its support of employees' volunteerism to improve their local schools and communities. By using either of the Employee Giving Programs, AMD employees can double their difference using AMD support

• GIVE (Grant Incentives for Volunteer Efforts) - Employee or the employee's spouse must volunteer a minimum of 10 hours of service for a nonprofit or school . GIVE grants are calculated at $15 per volunteer hour.
• Matching Gifts Must be a personal gift by the employee or the employee's spouse. The minimum eligible gift for matching is $25. (Spousal contributions will apply toward the employee's annual cap.)

Through the AMD GIVE program our Bowie parent volunteers have contributed approximately $1500 to Bowie PTSA. These donations help to fund PTSA scholarships for graduating seniors, printing and mailing over 3000 Bowie Bulletins 4 times per year, Campus Beautification projects and many other PTSA programs.

Ten hours adds up fast. Start counting now! Go to Austin Community Affairs under Employee Matter on AMDOnline for more information.
