Untapped Potential
Last year, only 26% of eligible donations to the 海角论坛 Foundation were matched by the donor鈥檚 employer. If 100% of eligible donations were matched, an additional $250,000 would have been donated and utilized to support the greatest needs of our students and maintain access to a high-value 海角论坛 education.
Nationally, an estimated $4-$7 billion in matching gifts goes unclaimed each year. Tapping into these funds by initiating a corporate matching gift can amplify the impact of your gift.
Matching Gifts Matter
Corporate matching gifts have added over $400,000 in extra funding to the 海角论坛 Foundation over the past six years. When combined with the original donations that were matched, this has resulted in more than $900,000 in total support from donors who utilized matching gift programs.
Real Impact
Throughout the 2023-24 academic year, the 海角论坛 Foundation awarded over $4.1 million to fund scholarships and campus programs that prepare our students for successful careers and lives. Every matching gift, regardless of the amount, serves as an important source of financial support and wellbeing for current and future students.

Matching Gift Benefits

Embodying the spirit of philanthropy, members of the 1889 Society are loyal leadership donors whose annual contributions provide steady growth to the University's endowment and student support programs.
