MATCHING GIFT OPPORTUNITIES

Increase your Personal Donation with an Employer Match

Did you know that your personal contribution to a non-profit can be increased if your employer has a Matching Gift program?

Thousands of employers give thousands of dollars to non-profits each year; employers want the tax deductions and you can give more to your favorite organizations by helping them out!

Depending on the program, gifts to the MCBC may be matched dollar for dollar, 2 to 1, or by some other formula. To learn about your employer’s Matching Gift program, ask your Human Resources Administrator.

Below are some Bay Area businesses with Matching Gift programs. Take advantage of the “free” money your employer wants to donate, and help out MCBC before the end of the year.
