Equitable Foundation

Through our Matching Gifts program, we double the impact of the charitable contributions made by our employees and financial professionals. The programs are designed to help you magnify the impact of your own giving while leveraging your community activities and can be used to support branch-related community projects.

Equitable is proud to be an annual contributing member of the American Red Cross Disaster Responder Program. Our annual support is an investment in disaster relief preparedness, ensuring the Red Cross can pre-position supplies, secure shelters, and train volunteers nationwide, so they are always ready to respond when disaster strikes. To further extend disaster relief support, employee and financial professionals’ personal donations to disaster relief organizations can also be matched at a 1:1 allocation.

At Equitable we are seen as a Force for Good within the communities where we live and work. This is not just about giving our time to a great cause. It’s about building up our surrounding communities and recognizing we're stronger together – as a team, as a company and as a community. Equitable Foundation awards grants to support our nonprofit partner organizations where volunteer events take place. In addition, in employee sites across the organization, we give our people time off to volunteer in their communities and support these organizations. 

Equitable Foundation Relief Fund (EFRF) is a program designed to help employees or financial professionals cope with unexpected and unavoidable hardships that place undue financial or mental stress on themselves or their families. The EFRF has been created to help address unmet worker needs as well as to strengthen our business and help employees feel they have an extra resource to bolster their financial stability.
