Frequently Asked Questions

The LoveWorks program seeks to be a source of support to the employees of Wildman Business Group,  their affiliated partners, and customers.

What is LoveWorks?

The LoveWorks initiative provides a platform for people to connect and give and/or receive help or resources.  There are three pillars:

Mission:  LoveWorks exists to build a community of people that value and care for each other through the generosity of their time, skills, and resources.

Vision:  That every Wildman employee would experience true community by helping meet each other’s needs.  Acts 2:44-47

What is the LoveWorks fund?

The LoveWorks fund is a benevolence fund designed to provide assistance to those with financial distresses or needs, and other areas that we place high value on as a company.

How is it funded?

The fund is made up of company and employee donations.  It’s based on the model that we will sacrifice to help each other.  We encourage our employees to sign up for the payroll deduct option, at a minimum of $10/paycheck so you qualify for the tax benefit.

Individuals donate to the fund and the company matches those donations.  We also solicit customers and vendors to donate to the fund.
