      Why not just tell donors and volunteers to reach out to their HR departments?

      This article explains how Double the Donation’s tools help maximize matching gift and volunteer grant revenue for organizations.

      Maximizing Matching Gift and Volunteer Grant Revenue

      To increase the amount of matching gifts and volunteer grants your organization receives, it’s essential to make the process as easy as possible for donors and volunteers.

      Why Not Just Rely on HR Departments?

      Simply asking donors and volunteers to reach out to their HR departments is often ineffective. Here’s why:

      1. Convenience for Donors and Volunteers:
        Donors are much more likely to use a simple link to submit a match request than to search through a benefits handbook or contact their HR department.

      2. Immediate Action:
        By notifying donors right after they donate, you create an opportunity for them to submit their matching gift request instantly. This immediate action increases the chances of a successful match.

      3. Maximizing Revenue:
        Every additional matching gift or volunteer grant can significantly boost your organization’s revenue. In fact, a single matching gift can often cover the cost of Double the Donation’s services for an entire year.

      Example Impact:

      A single matching gift can potentially cover the cost of the service for the entire year, providing significant value to your nonprofit.
