FAQs
What are employee matching gift programs?
Employee matching gift programs are corporate giving programs in which the company matches donations made by employees to eligible nonprofit organizations. It’s an easy way to double your impact for people in need.
How do I request a matching gift?
This process must be initiated by the donor, and many employers have an electronic submission process. Many programs will require donor to submit proof of their donation – you should immediately receive an email receipt from GiveDirectly after making a donation. If you aren’t able to find it in your inbox, please reach out to us at [email protected].
Please search our database for information about how your specific company processes matching gift requests.
If my employer has a matching gift program, does that guarantee they will match my donation to GiveDirectly?
No – this form from Double the Donation only has information on whether your employer will match donations in general. See the “Matching Gift Information” section after you search for your employer for more details, or reach out to the appropriate person at your company to confirm eligible organizations.
Where does the employer matching information come from?
We partner with a company called Double the Donation. If you see anything that should be changed, please email Double the Donation’s team at [email protected].
