/in /by

Double the Donation, the leading provider of matching gift solutions for nonprofits, radio stations, and educational institutions, is proud to partner with ACD Direct. ACD Direct customers are now able to integrate matching gift functionality directly into their fundraising efforts. 

With this partnership, ACD Direct customers can incorporate matching gifts directly into their call scripts and online donation forms. The integration provides radio stations the tools to easily implement gift matching into their greater fundraising strategy and includes access to Double the Donation’s extensive database of over 20,000 companies, subsidiaries, and spelling variations.

“ACD Direct continually searches for innovative solutions that will improve and maximize our clients’ fundraising efforts,” said Noah Rosales, CEO of ACD Direct, Inc.  “Through our partnership with Double the Donation, we can now offer our clients the opportunity to expand their fundraising strategies through matching gift optimization.”

ACD Direct customers will be able to use 360MatchPro by Double the Donation to completely revolutionize their matching gift efforts. In the 360MatchPro portal, users can see which donations are known to be match-eligible, track the progress of matched donations, and automate outreach to all donors about matching gifts. 

The outreach automation is highly customizable so that every email is branded to match the organization. ACD Direct clients are also able to enter in customized text on the donation form, providing clearer guidance for donors as they move through the giving process. By automatically emailing every donor and providing a simple and clear breakdown of the donor’s employer’s matching gift program, 360MatchPro solves the problem of lack of donor awareness and makes it easier for organizations to collect matching gifts.

“Every year, $4-7 billion in matching gift revenue is left on the table each year,” says Adam Weinger, President of Double the Donation. “We look forward to helping ACD Direct customers claim some of that revenue so their stations can focus on providing quality broadcasting to their communities.”

Lack of donor awareness is the biggest hurdle to collecting matching gifts. 360MatchPro solves this problem by automatically emailing every donor and providing a simple and clear breakdown of the donor’s employer’s matching gift program. 

Thanks to the integration with 360MatchPro, ACD Direct customers will be able to effortlessly drive more matching gifts to completion and increase their overall annual revenue.
