#GivingTuesdayNOW Idea #102: Increase Your Impact By Seeing If Your Employer Matches Charitable Donations!
Many employers sponsor matching gift programs and will match any charitable contributions or volunteer hours made by their employees, retirees and/or employees’ spouses.
Step 1: Donate
Make a donation and be sure to keep your receipt. Many corporate matching programs will give you up to one year after your donation to request a match.
Step 2: Search For Your Company
First search for your company by clicking HERE* Then fill in your company name using the form. No results? Your company may still have a matching program that is not listed. Contact your HR Department to find out.
Step 3: Match
Requesting a matching gift or volunteer grant is normally a five minute process which must be initiated by the donor/volunteer.
Your employer’s website may allow you to fill out an electronic submission for the matching gift.
