Matching Gifts from Your Employer: Many companies encourage employees to be philanthropic by matching their employee gifts to colleges and universities. Most companies match dollar for dollar, and some will even match 2:1 or 3:1. Simply request a matching gift form from your employer’s human resources department and send your completed form to us with your gift. We will do the rest, and your gift will have double or triple the impact.
