Many companies and corporations offer a matching gifts program as a benefit to their employees and retirees who wish to donate to a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt charitable organization. Your employer pledges to match your contribution to qualifying organizations.

Matching gifts program rules and regulations vary from company to company, but generally, your employer will match your donation 1 to 1, up to $1,000 or more a year. If you donate $100, your employer will give another $100. Some companies may also match in-kind gifts, event sponsorships, or gifts of products and equipment.

To participate in your company's matching gifts program:
First contact your personnel or human resources department and find out if they offer this kind of program. The process varies among companies, but usually, there are three steps:

1. Make a donation to AgForestry.
2. Obtain an Employee Matching Gifts Program form from your employer, fill out the section indicated, and mail it to us at 9211 E. Mission, Suite J, Spokane, WA 99206.
3. We will take it from there! We will fill out the second portion of the form and return it to your employer, who will then disburse the matching funds to us.

Below are listed companies that are known to have Matching Gifts Programs.
(This is meant to be a guide only. Matching gift programs may be discontinued and eligibility rules may change at the discretion of the company. Contact your HR personnel office for detailed information regarding your company.)
