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 Good Shepherd!

We partner with Double the Donation. If you see anything that should be changed or is incorrect, please email Double the Donation's team at data@doublethedonation.com

Requesting a matching gift or volunteer grant 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.

1. Donate to Good Shepherd Episcopal School.

2. 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).

3. Once logged in, search for the nonprofit that you donated to.

4. Select the appropriate nonprofit from the search results. If it is not found, manually enter the organization's details.

5. Register the donation.

6. Submit the completed matching gift request to your employer.

If you submit your matching gift outside of the school's online donation form or dedicated matching gifts page, contact the school directly to notify them of the request, so they may track the matching funds as needed.

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.

While your donation to a 501(c)3 organization 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 the nonprofit.
