Paychex Cares for the Community
Challenge
In 2020, Paychex participated in United Way of Greater Rochester’s 21-Day Racial Equity Challenge designed to increase awareness of critical issues and strengthen our capacity to dismantle all forms of racism. Originally developed by racial justice educators, the program has been embraced by communities and organizations across the country to help people develop a deeper understanding of how inequity and racism affect our lives and communities.
The Paychex Charitable Foundation continues the company legacy of philanthropy and our commitment to giving back to the communities where our clients and employees live and work. The Foundation is an official legal entity that provides monetary support to qualified 401(c)(3) organizations in the Rochester, NY area, as well as to significant charitable initiatives employee teams around the country are involved in.

One thing that has emerged from this year’s widespread calls for racial justice is an acknowledgment that there needs to be greater understanding of how systemic racism and inequity have impacted so many American lives – including our own co-workers, clients, friends, and families.
