Corporate Donation Matching Programs
Want to double your donations? Don't miss out on the easy money to be raised through donor matching opportunities.
Getting a corporate match for your workplace doesn't have to be intimidating. Similar to reaching out to your group of potential donors, all you have to do is ask!
How does it work? It's easy! A matching gift is a company's payment matching wholly or in part a donation made by company employees. Most companies match 100%, some match 50% and some match even more!
We have tried to make it easy for your supporters to get matching gifts as well! As part of the donation form, they can search for their company's name in the MATCHING GIFT section. If there is a record of it, it will tell them who they need to contact to get the match. Peasy!
