Corporate Donation Matching
Many employers will match charitable gifts—sometimes dollar-for-dollar or more. Submitting a match can double (or even triple) the impact of your donation to Pat’s rides supporting cancer and Alzheimer’s research and care.
Find your employer’s matching portal
- Search your company intranet for matching gifts, gift match, or charitable giving.
- Check HR/Benefits tools for a link to vendors like Benevity, CyberGrants, YourCause/Blackbaud, or Millie.
- If you can’t find it, email HR/Benefits (subject: “Charitable gift matching”) asking for:
- Whether the company matches employee donations
- The link to the matching portal and your eligibility
- Deadlines (many require submission within 90 days)
Sample email to HR/Benefits
Hi HR/Benefits Team,
Do we offer a charitable gift matching program? If so, could you share the portal link and any deadlines or requirements?
