What is a matching gift?

A matching gift is when a person donates to a nonprofit organization and their employer donates an equal or greater amount to the same nonprofit. A matching gift is a great way for a donor to double or even triple their contribution to help Moncrief Cancer Institute fight cancer.

How do I apply for a matching gift?

To make a matching gift, first contact your employer’s matching gifts program office to find resources specific to your company’s program such as minimum and maximum match amounts, program guidelines, and information on getting your donation to Moncrief Cancer Institute matched.

What happens if a matching gift is not approved?

If a matching gift company does not approve a matching gift, the company will contact both the employee and the organization with the reason the match was rejected. Most often a matching gift is rejected because the donation amount isn’t within the program parameters specified by the company.

How long will it take for my company to receive my matching gift form from Moncrief Cancer Institute?

It can take two to four weeks to process the matching gift form.

How long will it take the matching gift company to process and mail a check for the matching gift?
