MATCHING GIFTS

What is a Matching Gift?  

A matching gift is a charitable donation from an organization or corporation that "matches" their employee’s donation to an eligible nonprofit organization, most often dollar for dollar. Some will even donate based on your volunteer hours to Main Line Animal Rescue! Thousands of national and international companies offer matching gift programs to their employees as part of their corporate philanthropic goals. This means millions of individuals are eligible to participate in a matching gift program - this could include you! Your $100 donations to MLAR can easily become a $200 contribution.

How does a Matching Gift Program Work?

 

  • It is easy to participate in your company's Matching Gift Program. All you need to do is complete the appropriate forms and submit them to your Human Resources Department after making your donation to Main Line Animal Rescue. Many companies now have convenient online sites which make it nice and simple. Your employer will then review your submission and send their matching gift to us!
