Matching Gifts

If a company participates in this program, it means they are willing to donate a gift to Carroll that matches, or equals, an employee's personal contribution without any additional obligation from the individual donor.

While most companies offer a 1:1 matching ratio, some companies double or even triple an employee's gift! This program enables some donors to increase the impact of their contributions to Carroll College.

For example, if your Annual Fund gift this year is $250 and:

• Your company has a 1:1 match, Carroll will receive an additional $250 and you will be listed as a $500 donor!
• Your company has a 2:1 match, Carroll will receive an additional $500 and you will be listed as a $750 donor!

What do I need to do?

If you know your company offers a matching program (see Highlight sidebar on this page), then stop by your Human Resources department and ask for a form. Submit this form with your Annual Fund gift and we'll take care of the rest!
