Matching Gifts
Many employers sponsor matching gift programs and will match charitable contributions made by their employees. What is more, some companies match gifts made by retirees and/or spouses. Your gift could be doubled or tripled. This may be a way to increase the amount of your gift without any additional cost to you.
Contact your Human Resources Department to see if your company has a matching gifts program and request the necessary documents. Matching gifts are an appealing way for corporations to make a difference by multiplying the impact of every contribution.
