Maximize your giving

There’s power in numbers. Many life events give you the opportunity to engage your friends and family. Your employer can also help increase your contribution.

Matching gifts

One of the easiest ways to double your gift is to take advantage of company-matched gifts. See if your employer participates — and if it’s a yes, all you have to do is submit a form. We’ll work with your company to make sure the transfer takes place.
