Scaling global social impact can feel complex - but for purpose-driven companies, it’s a powerful opportunity to unite employees, simplify giving and amplify results. Cisco, a global technology leader, embraced that opportunity by leveraging Benevity’s Global Donor-Advised Fund (DAF) to supercharge their worldwide giving - simplifying global disbursements across tax regulations, compliance requirements and dispersed employee networks.

Join Kelly Petrich, Director & Global Leader of Community Impact at Cisco and Benevity’s Tanya Bilotta, to hear how they streamlined global disbursements while empowering employees to support causes worldwide. By removing barriers to giving, making participation seamless across borders and unlocking access to over 100,000 approved nonprofits (up from just 7,000), Cisco made global impact easier than ever.

The results speak for themselves: Since partnering with Benevity, Cisco has seen a 60% increase in volunteer time and supported 15% more nonprofits globally (when compared to an equivalent time window with their previous vendor). Employee engagement surged, reaching an all-time high participation rate of 85% in FY23, which was sustained at over 80% in FY24 and FY25. The program also facilitated over US $90 million in employee donations and matching gifts to nonprofits globally since FY23.

Join us to:

  • See how Benevity’s Global DAF simplifies how Cisco funds, tracks and disburses global donations
  • Discover how Benevity’s ecosystem - from nonprofit vetting and risk mitigation to tax-effective giving, volunteering and global impact reporting - can help your company go global with confidence
  • Learn how Cisco scaled giving and volunteering globally by reducing friction for employees and increasing nonprofit access
  • Discover what it takes to build an inclusive program that drives real engagement everywhere your employees are
