Did you know that you can multiply your gift and make a bigger impact with a matching gift from your employer?
The Field Museum is committed to our Earth's future by fueling a journey of discovery across time to enable solutions for a brighter future rich in nature and culture. A corporate matching gift through employee giving programs can double or triple your impact and provide you with greater access to your Museum.
Many corporations match employee donations (or the tax-deductible component of your membership) to our organization.
If you volunteer with us, your employer may also provide a grant to the Field Museum as a way to recognize your ongoing commitment.
If you have any questions about matching gifts, please contact our offices at 312.665.7777. Thank you for taking the time to seek a matching gift from your employer and for your continuous support of the Field Museum.
Employee matching gift programs are corporate giving programs in which the company matches donations made by employees to eligible nonprofit organizations. It's an easy way to double your contribution to us!
Requesting a matching gift is normally a five-minute process that must be initiated by the donor. You can do this through an electronic submission process or by filling out and submitting a paper match form provided by your employer. Please search our database above for company-specific information.
Many companies offer Volunteer Grants (often called "Dollars for Doers"). If you volunteer a certain number of hours with us, your employer may provide us with a financial grant in recognition of your time. Some companies also offer Volunteer Time Off (VTO), allowing you to volunteer during work hours without using your personal PTO. Search for your employer above to see if these programs are available to you.
We partner with a company called Double the Donation. If you see anything that should be changed, please email Double the Donation's team at data@doublethedonation.com.
For questions regarding your company's programs, please contact your employer's HR or community giving department. Much of the necessary information is also available on your company intranet.
