This article explains how to find contact information for companies with matching gift programs and what resources Double the Donation provides to assist with this process.
Challenges in Finding Corporate Contact Information
It can be difficult to directly access the corporate contact information for companies with matching gift programs. Companies often do not make this information readily available to nonprofits, making it a challenge for you to follow up.
What Double the Donation Does:
-
Building a Comprehensive Database: At Double the Donation, we build and maintain a database of companies that match donations, along with as much information as we can track, including:
-
Matching gift forms
-
Company guidelines
-
Submission instructions
-
-
Vendor Information: In many cases, we may provide contact information for the vendor that administers the company’s matching gift program, instead of directly contacting the company itself.
