The Visa Employee Relief Fund helps Visa employees (and their families) around the world who need extra financial assistance due to an unexpected financial hardship. Employees are encouraged to apply for a grant within 180 days of a life-changing event, and grants are reviewed and gifted throughout the year (starting from June 1, 2017).
Every contribution helps and when combined with the donations of others, can provide a grant to help a fellow employee when facing the unexpected.
The Visa Employee Relief Fund relies on support from Visa as well as individual employees. Donations to the Visa Employee Relief Fund made on Benevity Spark! will be matched automatically by Visa. Donations to this fund will count toward an employee’s annual match cap of $5,000 USD.
The Visa Employee Relief Fund is independently operated by the Emergency Assistance Foundation (EAF). For more information on EAF, please see their website: https://emergencyassistancefdn.org/
