Donate! Match it! Done!
Did you know you can increase your donation without spending another dime? That's where Corporate Matching comes in.
How does it work?
When you donate to PPIE, a 501(c)3 non-profit, your employer may match that donation at no extra cost to you. This is money your employer has already set aside to benefit organizations you, their employee, support. A corporate match can increase your donation by one-third to sometimes twice the amount- without spending another cent of your own money.
How To Apply for Corporate Match
You - the employee/donor - are the only person who can initiate the corporate match process with your company, and each company has its own process. PPIE cannot initiate the process on your behalf.
Together we can make such a difference for our children! If you'd like to get more involved, please contact Executive Director Susan Hayes or just use our Volunteer Sign-up on the website, it is that easy!
