An easy way to double your contribution to SGFoundation is through employee giving programs. Many corporations match employee donations (or the tax-deductible component of your membership).
Thank you for checking to see if your company offers these programs. We hope you will take a minute to see if your company offers an employee matching gift program – grants that could equal hundreds, or even thousands, of dollars for Micro Grants!
See if your employer will match your donation!
