Part of the My GiveBack Hub family

My GiveBack Hub connects homeowners with approved local service providers. When a customer completes an eligible job through the Hub and selects a partner charity, the provider makes a contribution to that charity. Taking part is a separate step from these free checks.

For charities

Receive support from local service jobs

Partner charities can receive giveback contributions when customers complete eligible service jobs through My GiveBack Hub and select them. The contribution comes from the provider, and charities never pay to take part.

For service providers

Connect with customers and support local causes

Approved providers can receive service requests from homeowners in partner charity communities, and their eligible jobs through the Hub support the local charity each customer selects. Providers apply and are reviewed, and a paid membership applies after approval.
