Matching Gift

Program Overview

An easy way to double your valuable contribution is through employee giving programs.

Many employers sponsor matching gift programs and will match any charitable contributions or volunteer hours made by their employees.

Your company’s human resources department should be able to provide information on how to apply for a matching gift.

Does Your Company Match Gifts?

Find out if your company matches gifts. The search tool will take you to the Ohio State University Matching Gifts website where you can check to see if your company supports a matching grant. We are using Ohio State as it has the most up-to-date database on corporate matching programs.
