Matching Gifts Program

What is a matching gift?

A matching gift is financial support to Pacific provided by companies through employees matching gift programs. Some companies match their employee's monetary gifts to nonprofit organizations, such as Pacific. This allows you to multiply your support by doubling, or in some cases even tripling your gift!

Where does the matching gift money go?

It's up to you. You decide where your personal gift and company's matching gift funds will go.

Is a matching gift tax deductible?

While your personal gift to Pacific is 100% tax deductible, the company's matching gift is not tax deductible.
