MATCH RATIO
1:1, 2:1, or another multiplier
WORKPLACE GIVING / MATCHING GIFTS
Many employers match charitable contributions made by employees, retirees, and spouses. Search your company, review the rules, and turn one gift into twice the support for our community.
A matching gift is an employer contribution made after an employee donates to an eligible nonprofit. Depending on the program, a company may match the original donation dollar-for-dollar or at a higher ratio.
Your personal contribution is tax-deductible to the full extent provided by law. Your employer may also be able to deduct its portion of the matched gift.
