OKLAHOMA CITY (Oct. 23, 2025) — Paycom Software Inc. (NYSE: PAYC) (“Paycom”), a leading provider of comprehensive, cloud-based human capital management software, donated $35,000 to Canine Companions® through its employee giving program and company donation match. This contribution will support training classes for up to 25 service dog recipients, including children, adults and veterans with disabilities, at no cost.
“Paycom is proud to partner with Canine Companions in supporting individuals with disabilities,” said Tara Steffens, team leader of corporate philanthropy programs at Paycom. “This continued support reflects our shared commitment to breaking down barriers and creating more opportunities for independence.”
This year, Canine Companions is celebrating its 50th anniversary. Since its founding, it has placed more than 8,400 service and facility dogs completely free of charge while providing ongoing follow-up support for each of its clients.
A Canine Companions client said, “The tasks our daughter’s service dog can perform, like picking up water bottles or pencils if she drops them or turning on light switches that are too high, not only foster confidence and independence, but also provide a deeply profound partnership and companionship that we have longed for.”
Paycom has donated to the nonprofit through its employee giving program since 2023.
“This funding directly touches the lives of people seeking greater independence and will make a lasting impact,” said Laura Manning, director of philanthropy at Canine Companions. “Canine Companions truly appreciates the generous financial support of Paycom and its employees.”
Paycom’s employee giving program supports a multitude of local and national causes, including youth programming, mental health treatment, programs for individuals living with disabilities and food support for individuals and children needing assistance. Paycom selects a wide range of nonprofits each year so employees can donate to an organization that aligns with their values. Additionally, the company matches every dollar donated through the employee giving program.
