Matching Gifts

Double The Impact

Thank you so much for your generous support! Because of donors like you, we are able to continue the vital work of serving children and families across Northeast Illinois. Did you know there’s a simple way to make your contribution go twice as far?

Many companies generously match their employees’ charitable donations. This means your $50 gift could become $100, or your $500 gift could become $1,000, providing twice the resources to those who need it most, at absolutely no additional cost to you.

Why take the extra step to match your gift?

  • It helps a cause you care about: You’ve already done the hard part by choosing to give. A matching gift unlocks charitable funds your employer has already set aside to support the community.

  • It only takes a few minutes: For most companies, the matching process is incredibly simple. It usually just requires logging into a company portal or submitting a quick online form.

  • It’s simple to get started: just use the link below to find your company and start the process.
  • You might be eligible even if you don’t realize it: Many companies extend their matching gift programs to part-time employees, spouses, and even retirees. Some will even match gifts made up to a year after your initial donation!
