Employer matching gifts programs double the impact of charitable donations made by their employees to nonprofit organizations. Typically, employees donate to a charity of their choice and request a match from their employer, who verifies and matches the donation, often dollar-for-dollar.
Corporate donation matching programs incentivize charitable giving, fostering a culture of philanthropy within the workplace. They also demonstrate a company’s commitment to social responsibility, enhancing reputation and employee satisfaction. In this collaborative effort, employees, nonprofits, and companies work together to create positive change in communities.
If you are unsure whether or not your employer offers a match, your human resources department should be aware of your company’s policy.
