H&R Block helps nonprofits raise more than $1 million for second straight year
May 02 2018 - 9:09AM
H&R Block’s (NYSE:HRB) nonprofit referral program generated
donations for more than 2,400 nonprofits this year, totaling more
than $1 million for the second straight year. The program awarded
nonprofits with $20 for each new client they referred to H&R
Block or Block Advisors for tax preparation.
“More than 2,400 nonprofit organizations nationwide participated
in the H&R Block nonprofit referral program,” said Jennifer
Snyder, program manager for H&R Block. “Giving back is part of
H&R Block’s culture. Whether it’s free tax advice, a community
service project or a financial donation, H&R Block invests in
the communities it serves.”
Nonprofit organizations often see charitable donations increase
toward the end of the year as taxpayers maximize their yearly tax
deduction for donations. This program provides local nonprofits
with an opportunity to raise funds at the beginning of the year
when private donations traditionally decline.
In 2018, H&R Block’s nonprofit referral program contributed
more than $1 million to participating organizations. 501(c)(3),
501(c)(6), 501(c)(19) and 501(c)(23) organizations, such as
schools, chambers and veterans organizations, are eligible for the
program. Organizations may sign up now to benefit next year by
contacting their local H&R Block or Block Advisors office or
visiting www.hrblockreferrals.com.
