Corporate Gift Matching Programs

What are matching gift programs? These are extensions of corporate philanthropy. Matching gift programs are designed to be the means by which companies support employee charitable giving. Companies match donations made by employees to a nonprofit of choice. If your employer participates in this type of program, you can contact your human resources department for more information on their process. This is free money for the organization and is very simple to setup.

Please contact the organization if you need help finding out if your employer offers matching grants.

Monthly Giving

Monthly giving is great way to manage your donations without sacrificing large amounts at one time. It’s easy, effective, and really adds up over time, helping the organization continue on its mission to serve the community. This method of giving can be organized with your bank. Here are some examples of what different monthly donations could support.

Amount per Month	How your monthly donation helps the ECD community
$10	An ad-free chat room for one year
$25	Support for ECD education to one doctor
$50	Support activities to welcome new members into the ECDGA
$75	The organization’s insurance for a year
$100	Support an educational ECD presentation by an ECD community doctor

If every family donated $20/month, another ECD research project could be funded!

If every family donated $100/month, it would pay for the ECD Registry annual maintenance.
