What is Double the Donation’s Database?
Double the Donation’s database is the leading resource for nonprofits looking to maximize corporate giving opportunities. It serves as a comprehensive directory of companies that offer workplace giving programs, making it easy for organizations to identify and access corporate funding.
Here’s how it works:
- A user clicks into the database search tool and begins typing a company name.
- The user selects the appropriate company from the auto-completing dropdown menu.
- The user is provided with company-specific information regarding available workplace giving programming in real time. This generally includes eligibility guidelines and links to request forms for easy access.
With an intuitive search functionality and direct access to program information for thousands of companies, our database ensures that organizations never miss out on valuable corporate support.
What Programs Are Included in the Corporate Giving Database?
Double the Donation’s corporate giving database is designed to help nonprofits connect with a wide range of corporate philanthropy programs. With our latest expansion, the database now includes even more opportunities for organizations to secure corporate funding and support.
Here’s a breakdown of the key programs available:
- Matching Gifts – Companies match their employees’ donations to eligible nonprofits, effectively doubling (or sometimes tripling) the original contributions.
- Volunteer Grants – Businesses provide financial donations to nonprofits where their employees volunteer, rewarding community involvement with direct funding.
- Volunteer Time Off (VTO) – Companies offer paid time off for employees to volunteer, encouraging staff to support causes they care about while remaining engaged in corporate philanthropy.
- Corporate Grants – Businesses offer direct grants to nonprofits, either through employee-nominated grant programs, community partnerships, or annual corporate giving initiatives.
- In-Kind Donations – Companies contribute goods, services, or other non-monetary resources to nonprofits, helping organizations cut costs and better serve their communities.
With this comprehensive suite of corporate giving programs, Double the Donation’s database makes it easier than ever for nonprofits to find and leverage the support they need to further their missions.
Finding Sponsorships in Double the Donation’s Database
With the recent expansion of Double the Donation’s database to include corporate sponsorship programs, nonprofits can now easily identify businesses that offer sponsorships for events, initiatives, and long-term partnerships.
Here’s how nonprofits can navigate the platform to find the right opportunities:
- Search for Sponsorship Opportunities
- Nonprofits can use the database to search for companies that actively provide sponsorship funding. If a company offers sponsorships, the database results will have the option to expand the listing to view applicable details.
- Review Sponsorship Details
- Each company profile includes key information about its sponsorship program, such as funding amounts, application processes, and deadlines. Organizations are encouraged to review these details and determine whether the opportunity is a good fit for their cause.
- Connect with the Right Contacts
- The database provides relevant contact information for corporate philanthropy or sponsorship teams, making it easier for nonprofits to reach out directly. Many listings even include online application links to streamline the request process.
- Prepare a Strong Sponsorship Proposal
- Once a nonprofit identifies a potential sponsor, it’s essential to craft a compelling sponsorship proposal. For the best results, the proposal should highlight the organization’s mission, audience, and benefits of partnership for the sponsoring company.
- Track and Manage Sponsorship Applications
- In order to best manage outstanding requests, it’s a good idea for organizations to track which companies they reach out to. Plus, continuously monitor the status of their sponsorship requests.
By integrating sponsorship opportunities into our already robust database, Double the Donation makes it easier for nonprofits to secure corporate funding, build meaningful partnerships, and enhance their overall fundraising strategies.
Taking Action With the Full Sponsorships Module
Finding sponsorship opportunities in the database is only the first half of the equation. To convert prospects into active partners, your organization needs an efficient way to present opportunities and track progress.
Double the Donation’s newest corporate sponsorships module provides an end-to-end management toolkit designed to simplify outreach and display your giving levels with zero coding required.
Here is how these tools help you turn data into completed partnerships:
-
Build Visually Appealing Sponsorship Tiers: Showcasing your giving levels on your website should not require hiring a web developer. With Double the Donation’s tier-builder plugin, simply enter your tier levels, dollar amounts, and sponsor benefits directly into your account. Then, copy the provided plugin widget code and paste it into your website builder to display a clean, professional sponsorship matrix instantly.
-
Track Applications in a Central Dashboard: Tracking multiple corporate outreach efforts across spreadsheet files leads to missed deadlines and poor follow-up. The platform’s tracking dashboard organizes your active sponsorship applications in one place. You can easily monitor where each request sits in the pipeline, record contact notes, and set follow-up reminders to keep your corporate partnerships moving forward.
Combining our search database with an embeddable tier builder and pipeline tracker creates a complete ecosystem for corporate fundraising success.
Why This Expansion Matters for Fundraisers
Double the Donation’s inclusion of corporate sponsorships is a game-changer for nonprofit fundraisers. After all, sponsorships provide a crucial source of funding and support, but finding the right corporate partners has often been a time-consuming and challenging process.
Now, with sponsorship opportunities integrated into Double the Donation’s database, fundraisers have an easier way to connect with companies that align with their mission. Here’s why this expansion is so impactful:
- More Funding Opportunities – Corporate sponsorships offer nonprofits direct financial support for events, campaigns, and ongoing initiatives. By adding sponsorships to the database, fundraisers can now explore an additional revenue stream alongside matching gifts, volunteer grants, and other corporate giving programs.
- Streamlined Sponsor Research – Instead of spending hours researching potential sponsors, fundraisers can now find a ton of relevant corporate giving opportunities all in one place. This saves time and allows organizations to focus on building relationships with the right partners.

By leveraging data collected by your corporate giving database, fundraisers can cultivate lasting partnerships that involve generous corporate involvement.
