Important News

The Social Handshake & GoodUp are joining forces

We’d like to share some important news with you. GoodUp is taking over The Social Handshake, and we will be moving forward together.

Both organisations share the same mission: to make it easy for companies and their employees to make a positive social impact. Whilst The Social Handshake has specialised in Payroll giving and other innovative giving products in recent years, GoodUp helps companies engage their employees through volunteering.

This collaboration brings employee giving and employee volunteering closer together. Companies gain more opportunities to organise social engagement among their employees, whilst charities gain access to a larger network of companies, donors and volunteers.

 
 
 
 
 

What does this mean for you?

Companies

  • More opportunities – In addition to Payroll giving, employees will have more ways to get involved in volunteering.

  • More impact – Employees can contribute their time, skills, and financial support to causes that they care about.

  • More insight – Companies will be better equipped to contribute social initiatives and measure their impact.

 

Charities

  • More businesses – Gain access to a wider network of companies committed to social impact.

  • More opportunities – Beyond donations, unlock more ways to collaborate and engage through volunteering.

  • Greater visibility – New opportunities to raise awareness of your organisations amoung companies and employees.

 
 
 

What changes for you?

For clients of both organizations, there will be no change in the short term. Existing services will remain available, and established relationships will continue as usual. At the same time, opportunities for companies, employees, and charitable organizations will be further expanded in the coming period.

This collaboration marks an important next step in the development of employee giving and employee volunteering in the Netherlands. Both organizations share the ambition to make social engagement through the workplace increasingly natural and accessible.
