Have Your Employer Match Your Gift
Your gift to Feed the Children could help twice as many hungry children. Currently, tens of thousands of employers offer matching gift programs that double or even triple charitable contributions made by their employees — in some cases by retirees and/or spouses, too. And many employers also offer volunteer matching programs that match employee volunteerism with corporate donations. If your company is not listed, ask your Human Resources or Community Relations department about your company’s program.
