MATCH YOUR GIFT
Did you know that many companies have matching gift programs or employee giving days to support charitable giving? An estimated $4-$7 billion in matching funds go unclaimed each year! Through these programs, your donation can be matched dollar-for-dollar. Some companies even offer a 2:1 or 3:1 match!
Check if your employer matches your gifts by clicking here. Not all companies are listed, so if you can’t find your employer, your HR department or internal employee benefits documents may have more information.
No matching gift program at your company? Many employers also offer giving options through payroll deduction. You can designate a one-time or recurring gift through your employer’s preferred platform, such as Benevity or United Way.

Your role is to invite members of your community and networks to join you at the Luncheon, and to help influence support for YWCA. Want to be a Table Captain but don’t want to do it alone?
