Giving to the community is part of the H&R Block culture. The H & R Block Foundation supports that culture by hosting several programs that encourage and recognize the participation of associates who help improve the communities where they live and work.
The H & R Block Foundation recognizes teamwork and group efforts and leverages associates' volunteerism with cash. When an eligible associate volunteers a specific number of hours to a nonprofit organization within a 12-month period, the Foundation matches that commitment with a gift to the organization.
Associates and board members of H&R Block and The H & R Block Foundation individually give thousands of dollars to support private secondary schools, colleges and universities. In support of their generosity, the Foundation matches these gifts.
Each year, H&R Block associates work to make their blocks better in the communities where they live, work, and serve. Formerly known as The Henry W. Bloch National Award for Outstanding Community Service, the new Make Every Block Better Award will recognize associates who give back in extraordinary ways. Associates are nominated in three distinct categories: helping to connect neighbors, helping to connect and support small business owners, and outstanding volunteering efforts in general.
H&R Block’s community impact platform, Make Every Block Better, was conceived in the spirit of Henry W. Bloch, co-founder of H&R Block and former chairman emeritus of The H & R Block Foundation, who modeled exceptional corporate and civic leadership in his community.
