The Magic of Employer Matching

Published Thursday 07 of October, 2010

If you're a Harry Potter fan, you know it's best to start with easy tricks and work your way up to serious magic. But did you know that when you perform the simple trick of asking your employer to match your charitable gift to Tel-Hi, you're making major magic happen? It's true.

The Magic of Matching
Company matching programs will double (or even triple!) the impact of your generous charity dollars. Some will match donations you make even after you retire.
Poof! $25 for a youth book for our library becomes TWO BOOKS.
Poof!
$50 for seniors to enjoy two art classes turns into FOUR ART CLASSES.
Poof!
$100 for a week of camp for an at-risk child stretches to TWO WEEKS OF CAMP.
Poof!
$125 for art supplies turns into a SPECIAL FIELD TRIP TO AN ART MUSEUM.

With your employer's support, you can help Tel-Hi stretch its dollars, keeping our programs on track and making this a neighborhood where everyone can thrive. Chevron and Bank of America are just two Bay Area employers that match gifts. Our  donation page links to a list of hundreds. If your employer isn't listed, please ask. 

To have your gift matched, simply request a form, submit it with your donation to Tel-Hi, and we'll take care of the rest. There is magic in each gift that you make. If you can double or triple that gift with your employer's help, we'll declare you a  Twizard.
