Matching Gifts, Maximized: Uncovering Year-Round Potential to Drive Donations

Go Beyond Fundraising: The Podcast for Nonprofits

End-of-year giving is officially wrapped! You may have planned a matching gift campaign to finish the year strong, but promoting matching gifts throughout the year can boost both giving frequency and amount. In this episode of the Go Beyond Fundraising podcast, we talk with Amelia Baumann, Partnership Success Specialist at Double the Donation, about the crucial importance of ensuring donors know if their employers offer a matching gift program. Need proof? About 84% of donors are more likely to give if they see a match is offered, and 70% more donors respond to fundraising appeals that mention matching. We discuss the many benefits matching gifts can bring your organization. We’ll also share best practices to help you maximize awareness of this strategy. With more visibility, your donors can double or triple their gift — and your impact — at no extra cost to them. Listen now.
