Employer Matching: Maximizing Impact with Corporate Gift Matching

Add Even More Value To Your Gift!

Your donation to End Kids Cancer may be eligible for a matching contribution from your employer—allowing you to double or even triple its impact at no additional cost to you.

Many companies match tax-deductible charitable donations made by employees, retirees, and employees’ spouses. Some organizations also provide charitable grants when employees volunteer a certain number of hours.

If you have already donated, take a moment to find out whether your employer offers a matching-gift program. Your company’s human resources or community-giving department can provide instructions and any necessary forms.

Together, your original gift and your employer’s match can do even more to advance childhood cancer research, help families find critical medical and support resources, and educate parents about practical ways to reduce harmful environmental exposures.
