    • The purpose of Employee Matching Gifts Programs is to encourage employees, both active and retired, to support their communities by stimulating and magnifying their gifts to nonprofit organizations. These programs offer employees, and in some cases retirees, an opportunity to join in their company's support of not-for-profit organizations.
    • Each employer is different in how they determine what qualifies for matching funds.  Contact your Human Resources department to investigate or check their Web site to find out what your options are.
