Soup kitchens, after-school programs for at-risk children, and Hurricane Katrina relief efforts are among the recipients of grants from the Hewitt Associates Foundation in 2005. Associates throughout the United States raise money for the grant program through voluntary payroll deductions, an annual gala, and other fund-raising activities. A unique aspect is that foundation funding is provided only to associate-nominated organizations. Selection criteria include having a mission of serving the economically disadvantaged and a smaller budget so that any foundation funding can truly make a difference.
