How Corporate Matches Can Help
Many companies have Matching Gift Programs where employees make a charitable contribution and the company matches that. Find out if your company has a matching gift program and ask those who are pledging you if their company has one too. The sooner this is done the better, some companies will only cut checks on specified dates. To learn more about matching gift programs, contact your human resources department.
