Match employee gifts

Companies

Matching employee gifts is an efficient way to manage a corporate charitable giving program. If your company offers to match your employees’ charitable donation with a gift of the same, or even higher, amount to the same nonprofit organization, you are doubling your employees’ support for the causes they care about. Matching gift program also allows your business to participate in strengthening the community where it operates and where your staff work, live, and play. It is a simple and effective way of building community support for your company and motivating your employees to get involved in the community. Encouraging your employees to drive your charitable giving efforts also fosters their support for you as their employer. It shows your company listens. It shows your company cares.

Employees

Conversely, if you work for a company that will match your gift, the dollars you donate to Domestic Violence Resource Center can stretch twice as far, if not more, without any cost to you or your family. Ask your company’s human resources or other relevant department for a matching gift form, follow the instructions, and we and your employer will take it from there. If your company does not have a matching gift program yet, encourage the managers or owners to get it started or ask us for support!

Here is a partial list of companies that match their employees’ gifts. If your employer is not on the list, inquire with your human resources department.
