Our Mission

Make Every Dollar Count Twice

We exist to transform how mid-market companies approach charitable giving. By aligning philanthropy with business strategy, we help organizations maximize their social impact while strengthening employee engagement, brand reputation, and community trust — without increasing their giving budget.

Our Vision

A World Where Giving Is Strategic

We envision a future where every company's charitable giving is intentional, measurable, and deeply connected to the communities where their people live and work. Where philanthropy isn't an afterthought — it's a competitive advantage.

Meet the Founder

Amy Smith-Boden

Founded by Amy Smith-Boden, Giving Edge Strategies brings a more strategic, ROI-driven approach to corporate philanthropy.

Amy has spent most of her career working across nonprofits, communities, and corporate partners, developing a clear view of what makes philanthropic efforts actually work.

Through Giving Edge Strategies, she helps companies move beyond reactive giving toward more focused, results-oriented strategies. While many organizations give generously, those efforts are often fragmented, with limited visibility to employees and uneven impact in the communities they aim to serve.

She works as an outsourced CSR partner to corporate leadership, aligning charitable investments with employee priorities, local community needs, and business goals—ensuring every dollar works harder where it matters most.

What's Included

Everything You Need to Give Strategically

Each component is designed to ensure your charitable giving creates measurable value for your business and community.

Strategy Over Altruism

Giving should be intentional. We tie every philanthropic action to measurable business outcomes — retention, reputation, and community trust.

Hyper-Local Focus

We map the communities around your facilities to ensure giving aligns with what your employees and their neighbors actually need.

Employee-Centered

When giving reflects what employees care about, engagement and pride follow. We poll your people and build programs they believe in.

Sustainable Impact

We design programs for lasting change — not one-time donations. Transformational investment paired with sustainable giving models.

Zero Added Overhead

We serve as your outsourced CSR department. No new hires, no internal burden — just a clear plan and expert execution.

Full Transparency

Impact reports, ROI tracking, and clear communication. Everything you need to share results with your board and stakeholders.

What We Believe

Doing Good and Doing Well Are Not Mutually Exclusive

When philanthropy is treated as strategy — not obligation — everyone wins. Employees feel pride. Communities get real help. And businesses see measurable returns.

  • Companies don't need to give more — they need to give smarter
  • Employee engagement starts with listening to what your people care about
  • Hyper-local giving creates deeper impact than corporate-level campaigns
  • Philanthropy should be measurable, reportable, and tied to business goals
  • Nonprofits deserve partners who understand their constraints
  • Volunteerism and financial giving should work together, not separately

Strategic philanthropy isn't about giving more — it's about giving smarter. When you align community impact with business goals, everyone wins: your employees, your shareholders, and the communities you serve.
