Matching Gifts

Numerous West Michigan companies offer their employees and/or retirees the opportunity to increase their individual gifts to nonprofit organizations by matching them with corporate foundation or company funds – sometimes doubling or even tripling the original gift.

Several of these matching gift companies are listed below; however, we may be unaware of your particular employer’s program. Your employer’s personnel office will be able to tell you if your company offers such a program and what their giving guidelines are. They can even provide you with the appropriate forms.

Once completed, simply return your gift and the forms to:

YWCA West Central Michigan
25 Sheldon Blvd SE
Grand Rapids MI, 49503
