Matching Gifts
The Basics
A matching gift is a donation from a donor’s employer that matches the donor’s original gift, often dollar-for-dollar. You can significantly increase your fundraising by asking your donors to apply for matching gifts if their employer offers them.
How Matching Gifts Work
Donors must submit the appropriate information to their company regarding matching gifts. The company may reach out to Shatterproof to confirm that a donation was made.
Once we receive the matching gift check, we will credit the amount to your fundraising total. Please remember, this process may take some time depending on how frequently companies disburse charitable donations.
