Double your impact by asking your employer to match your gift. Did you know many companies offer a matching gift program to encourage philanthropy among their employees? Some companies will even match donations made by spouses and retirees. By simply completing a matching gift form (on-line or paper), you may be able to double, or even triple, the impact of your gift!
Use the search field above to see if your employer participates in a matching gift program. If necessary, mail your completed company matching gift form to the SAMS Foundation PO Box 34115 Washington, DC 20043 or email it to info@sams-usa.net. If you do not find your employer listed, please check with your company's Human Resources department.
What if I already donated before I learned about the matching program? No problem. If you recently donated online, by mail, or phone, check with your employer's Human Resource department to see if you can still submit a matching gift request.
Set up payroll giving In addition to matching programs, many companies let you set up automatic, tax-deductible donations that are deducted directly from your paycheck. It’s an easy way donate to donate regularly. Contact your employer's Human Resource department.

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.
