The primary focus of the First Data Foundation is to support employee giving and volunteerism through gift matching, "Donations-for-Doers" and select disaster relief efforts where employees and clients are directly affected.

Since its inception in October 2006, the Foundation has donated over $5 million in matching gifts and grants, and responded to disasters on four continents where our employees and clients were directly affected.

The Foundation does not accept unsolicited requests for grants or donations. Instead, corporate philanthropic decisions are made in alignment with a strategy to promote financial literacy and to share First Data’s latest innovations.
