Double Your Dollars

One of the easiest ways to maximize your donation to Gonzaga University is to take advantage of the matching gift program offered by your company, if there is one. It’s so simple:

Step 1. Use our online tool to find out if your employer offers a matching gift program, or check with your HR or payroll department .

Step 2. Get a copy of the donation guidelines to see what you need to do and obtain the forms you need to fill out to get your gift matched.

Step 3. Make your donation!

Did you know that on average, one in 10 donors is matching gift eligible? Or that approximately 50 percent of the Fortune 500 companies offer matching gift programs? Or that many companies match their employees’ donations to charity dollar for dollar?

Last year Gonzaga received over $160,000 in matching gifts. To learn more about making a matching gift to Gonzaga, go to www.gonzaga.edu/matchinggifts.
