What Are Corporate Matching Gifts?
Employer (or corporate) matching gifts are one of the most popular forms of workplace giving and corporate philanthropy. Companies that offer matching gift programs agree to match the charitable donations their employees make to qualifying organizations. This is most often done at a dollar-for-dollar rate (1:1), though some employers agree to match at 2:1 or even 3:1 donation ratios. These programs are often part of broader corporate social responsibility (CSR) efforts, making it easy for employees to engage in meaningful giving while supporting Civic Theatre's mission. Thousands of companies offer these programs—does yours?

STEP 3:
