FAQS
What are employee matching gift programs?
Employee matching gift programs are corporate giving programs in which the company matches donations made by employees to eligible nonprofit organizations. It's an easy way to double your contribution to us!
How is this information obtained?
We partner with a company called Double the Donation. If you see anything that should be changed, please email Double the Donation's team at data@doublethedonation.com
How do I request a matching gift?
Requesting a matching gift is normally a five-minute process that must be initiated by the donor/volunteer. You can do this by filling out and submitting a paper match form provided by your employer or through an electronic submission process. Please search our database for company-specific information.
How do I submit a matching gift?
Donate to Paraquad.
Log into your company's matching gift submission website (if you use the Double the Donation search tool, you will receive a follow-up email linking to this page).
Once logged in, search for Paraquad.
Select Paraquad from the search results. If it is not found, manually enter Paraquad’s details (see above).
Register the donation.
Submit the completed matching gift request to your employer.
Note: Once complete, Paraquad and your employer will communicate to verify your initial donation, and complete the match, if eligible.
What if I submit my matching gift outside of Paraquad’s online donation form or dedicated matching gifts page?
If you submit your matching gift outside of Paraquad’s online donation form or dedicated matching gifts page, contact Paraquad directly to notify them of the request, so they may track the matching funds as needed.
What if I forget to submit my matching gift request?
If you forget to submit your matching gift after selecting your company at the time of donation, you will receive a series of auto-generated emails prompting you to submit your match. The majority of companies offer an all-electronic matching gift submission process.
Are matching gifts tax-deductible?
While your donation to Paraquad is tax-deductible, your matching gift is not tax-deductible. Only your contributions are eligible for tax deduction. Each party involved (yourself and your employer) can only take deductions for contributions they directly made to Paraquad.
What if I still have questions?
For questions regarding your company's programs, please contact your employer's HR or community giving department.
For questions regarding submitting a matching gift to us, please contact our Advancement team.
