Corporate Matching

Corporate matching is a philanthropic initiative where companies match the charitable contributions made by their employees. This practice not only amplifies the impact of individual donations but also fosters a culture of giving within organizations. According to a report by the National Philanthropic Trust, approximately 65% of Fortune 500 companies offer some form of matching gift program, which can significantly enhance the financial support for various causes.

When employees contribute to eligible nonprofit organizations, their employers may match those donations dollar for dollar, or in some cases, even double or triple the amount. This means that a $350 or $500 donation from you (an employee) could result in a total contribution of $700, or more, depending on the company’s matching policy. Your employers matching program can lead to substantial funding for community programs, educational initiatives, and other charitable efforts.

To take advantage of corporate matching, please verify whether your employer participates in such programs.
