What are corporate matching gift programs?
Corporate matching gift programs are charitable giving programs set up by corporations in which the company matches donations made by employees to eligible nonprofit organizations, including us!
Thousands of companies offer matching gift programs. A few examples include:
- Johnson & Johnson – Triples donations with 2:1 matches for current employees while also doubling donations for retirees.
- Home Depot – Matches donations 1:1 up to $3,000 annually per employee.
The impact of these programs can be substantial. For example, Microsoft matched more than $50 million worth of employee donations to over 19,000 schools and 501(c)(3) nonprofits of which $4,500 went to our organization.
