OKLAHOMA CITY (Dec. 21, 2022) – Paycom Software Inc. (NYSE:PAYC), a leading provider of HR software, donated $110,000 to The Salvation Army of Central Oklahoma to support its emergency shelter, feeding program and Salvation Army Boys and Girls Club of Oklahoma City. Paycom also gave $15,000 to The Salvation Army of North Texas.
“It is a privilege to continue supporting The Salvation Army of Central Oklahoma and do our part to help feed and provide for thousands of families in Oklahoma,” said Amy Cook Fisher, Paycom’s director of client experience. “Our employees play a vital role in our long-standing partnership with The Salvation Army, and we’re proud to continue exemplifying our value of serving to an organization making such a significant impact.”
The $110,000 donation is the largest the Oklahoma City-based nonprofit has received for its Red Kettle Campaign. The donations are part of Paycom’s ongoing giving campaign that provides team members the opportunity to donate to a variety of local and national causes.
In addition to Wednesday’s donation, Paycom recently hosted Holidazzle, its 10th annual coat drive and holiday-themed event, where employees and Oklahoma City community members provided 800 coats to The Salvation Army of Central Oklahoma. Three hundred coats have also been donated to The Salvation Army of North Texas by Paycom’s Texas Operations Center employees.
“The winter can be an especially difficult season for many of our neighbors, and Paycom’s donation will help us provide much-needed resources now and year-round,” said Maj. Charles Powell, area commander of The Salvation Army. “Many in our community are struggling with inflation-related costs, so this support is as important as ever before.”
Paycom and its employees have a proud history of supporting The Salvation Army of Central Oklahoma, having donated nearly $770,000 over the past 10 years.
Team members across Paycom also donated their time and efforts to help make the holiday season brighter for Oklahomans of all ages. Groups collected, assembled and distributed gifts and stockings to senior citizens and families in The Salvation Army shelter. Employees also volunteered at the on-site food pantry.
Donations help give The Salvation Army the means to serve any human need without discrimination. Even the smallest of donations can mean a holiday gift for a child, shelter for a domestic abuse victim or a new coat for someone in need this winter.
