Match Donations

Most large companies offer a formal donation matching scheme as part of their Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) scheme, and many smaller ones will be happy to offer to match donations if you approach them and let them know about your fundraising.

Here’s how to get started:

1. Find out if your company already offers a scheme
Speak to your manager or human resources department to find out if a donation matching scheme exists, and how much they can commit to match. If they do, great! Skip to the third step.

2. Ask them to match your donations
If they don’t have a donation matching scheme ask them if they would consider offering one to you. Mention how other companies are helping and inform them that they only need to match up to a threshold that they are comfortable with (most will be up to £500 or so)

3. Get them to add their matched donation to your page
Get your employer to add their donation to your JustGiving Fundraising Page, and be sure to post an update and thank them!
