Turn Employee Communities into Action
Give ERGs and affinity groups one place to connect, organize, and take action together. Manage communities and chapters, host events, and connect employees to volunteering and other impact opportunities, all while giving admins the structure and visibility to support programs at scale.
Bring employee community and social impact together
We power purpose-driven companies with a solution that is easier to use, faster to launch, and more cost-effective than anything else out there.
Create a place to belong
Help employees discover communities, find relevant chapters, join in a click, and stay connected to the groups that matter to them.
Empower your leaders
Equip your leads to manage membership, communicate, host events, and understand engagement, without relying on spreadsheets and manual distribution lists.
Turn community into action
Connect employee communities with the giving, volunteering, and engagement programs already happening across your organization.
Flexible by design
Give every community the structure it needs to grow.
Flexible Community Structure
Create company-wide communities for ERGs, affinity groups, professional networks, and other employee groups. Chapters are optional, so each group can be structured for how it actually operates.
Chapters That Fit Your Organization
Organize chapters by office, city, region, business unit, or any structure that makes sense for your organization.
Built-In Leadership Roles
Give community and chapter leads the right level of access to manage their groups, while role-based permissions and approval workflows give admins the visibility and oversight they need.
One Shared System
Replace disconnected spreadsheets, inboxes, and distribution lists with one place to manage communities, chapters, membership, events, and activity.
Less admin. More leadership
Give employee leaders room to lead.
Leadership Tools
Equip community and chapter leads with the tools to run their groups day to day, including communications, event management, budgeting, RSVPs, attendance tracking, and more.
Built-In Communications
Reach the right community, chapter, or combination of groups without exporting CSVs, maintaining separate distribution lists, or moving to another tool. Membership stays up to date in Groundswell, so your audience does too.
Shared Ownership
Put more in the hands of employee leaders. Let community and chapter leads manage activity for their groups without routing every task through the central admin team.
Connect Communities to Impact
Admins and leads can create events for specific communities and chapters, or highlight relevant volunteer opportunities so employees can turn connection into meaningful action.
From connection to action
Turn membership into participation.
Easy Discovery + Membership
Employees shouldn’t have to know someone in the group to find it. Make every community easy to discover, join, and participate in.
Community Events
Create and manage networking events, speaker sessions, celebrations, workshops, meetups, and other experiences that bring members together — without counting them as volunteer activity in your impact reporting.
Bring Volunteering into the Community
Surface relevant Groundswell volunteer opportunities within communities and chapters so members can take action together.
Easy Registration
Turn interest into attendance. Employees can discover relevant events, get the details, RSVP in a few clicks, and manage their registrations directly in Groundswell.
Insights without the spreadsheets
See how your communities are growing.
Membership + Participation Insights
Connect community participation with existing HRIS data to understand how engagement varies across teams, locations, roles, and other employee groups.
Community Impact Insights
Understand where your communities spend their time, direct their generosity, and take action, bringing volunteering, giving, and community participation into one view.
Clear Leadership at Every Level
See who leads each community and chapter, understand where responsibilities sit, and keep your program organized as it grows.
Engagement Trends
Track events, RSVPs, attendance, and other activity to understand how participation changes over time and where engagement is strongest.
