Some companies also provide grants to nonprofits based on employee volunteer hours.

Check with your Human Resources department or Corporate Giving Program to learn whether your employer offers:

  • Matching charitable gifts

  • Payroll deduction giving

A matching gift can often double—or even triple—your impact.
