Frequently Asked Questions

What exactly is a matching gift?

A matching gift is when an employer matches their employees’ donations.

For example, when an employee donates $100 to a nonprofit or charity, they can submit a matching request to their employer. The employer can then match the $100 donation, thereby doubling the original donation at no cost to the employee.

Learn more about matching gifts from the video below:

Can I match donations made in the past?

Yes! You can request matching donations up to a year from when you made your gift.

Are matching gifts tax-deductible?

Unfortunately, only your original gift is tax-deductible. You cannot claim tax-deductibles on your employer’s matching gift.

What if my employer doesn't offer a matching gift?

Please visit this link to request a matching gifts program be set up through our partner  Double the Donation, or contact your employer’s HR department.
