What if your gift could do twice the good without costing you more?
That’s the power of matching gifts. When your employer matches your donation, every dollar you give becomes two. More wetlands restored. More students at the shoreline. More communities prepared for climate change.
Every year, an estimated $4 to $7 billion in matching donations goes unclaimed, simply because people don’t know to ask. Your gift to Save The Bay already helps restore wetlands, bring students to the shoreline, and prepare communities for sea level rise. Matching it takes just a few minutes, and doubles all of that.
Check to see if your employer matches, and make your gift go further today.
Ready to Double Your Impact?
It only takes a few minutes. Start by asking three quick questions:
Does your company offer matching gifts?
Do they match your volunteer hours?
Have you submitted a matching gift request?
If your employer’s name came up in the search above, click on it to review their guidelines and request your match.
You can give to Save The Bay online, by mail, phone, or through your workplace giving platform — and if your company offers payroll deduction, that’s an easy way to give a little all year long.
