What is a matching gift?

A matching gift is when you donate to a nonprofit organization and your employer matches your contribution with an equal or even greater donation. Many companies offer matching gift programs as a way to support the causes their employees care about.

By submitting a matching gift request, you can double or even triple the impact of your donation. Together, your generosity and your employer’s support help Scientific Adventures for Girls provide hands-on STEM programs that inspire girls to discover their potential, build confidence, and pursue opportunities in science, technology, engineering, and math.

Why are matching gifts a powerful way to contribute?

Matching gifts are a powerful way to contribute because they multiply the impact of a single donation without requiring additional funds from the donor. When an employer matches an employee’s gift, the nonprofit receives double—or sometimes even triple—the original contribution. This means one act of generosity can support more programs, reach more participants, and create a greater positive impact.

For organizations like Scientific Adventures for Girls, matching gifts can significantly expand access to hands-on STEM learning opportunities, helping more girls build confidence, curiosity, and skills in science, technology, engineering, and math.
