Community Involvement
At H&R Block, we put a premium on being a good corporate citizen. We're proud of the rich philanthropic tradition established by our founders, Henry and Richard Bloch, and work to honor their legacies through our ongoing philanthropic endeavors.
A large percentage of today's teens graduate without an understanding of how to properly manage their own finances. Knowing this, we created H&R Block
Dollars & Sense™, a comprehensive initiative to help high school students learn the essentials of personal finance, like how to manage a debit card, balance a budget, handle taxes, save money and avoid debt.
Since its inception in 2009, H&R Block Dollars & Sense has provided more than $3 million in scholarships and curriculum grants to students and high schools nationwide to increase teens' financial fitness.

Each year H&R Block communities nationwide are faced with disasters.
To ensure there is help when disasters strike, H&R Block has partnered with the American Red Cross Responder program.
This partnership puts us among a select group of corporations that provide the highest level of support to Red Cross relief efforts.
When disasters ranging from house fires to tropical storms happen around the country or in your back yard, the American Red Cross
is there to provide shelter, food, emotional support and assistance to people in need and we are proud to partner with them to make this happen.
The importance of giving back was rooted in H&R Block by our founders. Since 1974,
The
H&R Block Foundation has responded to the changing needs of people and communities through thoughtful, innovative and responsible philanthropy.
The Foundation grants approximately $2.5 million annually to nonprofit organizations in Kansas City to support arts and culture, community development, education, and health and human service. In addition, $200,000 supports associate and board community involvement activities.
H&R Block's Strength in Numbers program was founded on the belief that together we can make a greater impact on our community and the organizations that sustain it. Our associates invest their time and energy to support local and national community partners in the areas of financial literacy and financial stability.
Founded in 1980,The R.A. Bloch Cancer Foundation develops and supports projects that help people diagnosed with cancer have the best chance of beating it as easily as possible.
Operated by cancer survivors, the Bloch Cancer Hotline 1-800-433-0464 serves as a source of information, support and guidance for more than 20,000 patients per year. The National Cancer Survivors Day Rally, started by the Bloch Cancer Foundation in 1986, is now held in over 700 communities in the U.S. and 15 countries worldwide.
