Smart Ways To Give
Corporate Matching Programs
Did you know when you make a gift, you can request a matching gift from your employer, who then makes their own gift? Companies usually match gifts at a 1:1 ratio, but some will match at a 2:1, 3:1, or even a 4:1 ratio!
Simply check the box 'Get my company to match my donation' in the form below.
Give Appreciated Stock
Gifting appreciated securities, including stock, bonds, and mutual funds means a larger gift and a larger tax-deduction.
Avoid capital gains tax on appreciated stock!
Receive income tax charitable deduction!
Potential for corporate matching!
