Thrive Fund Interest Form

Life regularly deals us surprises. Unforeseen hardships, unplanned difficulties, natural disasters, or unexpected medical bills can come with no warning. For many, the funds to pay for these unanticipated events, and the time to manage them appropriately, are hard to come by or impossible to find. Because of this, Palmetto Goodwill created the THRIVE Fund to provide financial assistance and paid time off to team members in this time of hardship.

Dollars and vacation time accumulated in the THRIVE Fund come from other team member donations. Donations range in size and can be contributed on a one-time basis or through a continual bi-weekly payroll contribution. Every dollar and every hour counts. Added together, these donations help other team members in great need.

ELIGIBILTIY REQUIREMENTS
1) A team member must be employed by Palmetto Goodwill/Palmetto Goodwill Services for at least thirty (30) days.
2) A team member can be in either Full-time or Part-time active status.
3) A team member must agree to have their request, need(s), and employment standing with Palmetto Goodwill reviewed by the THRIVE Fund Committee.
