Corporate Matching Gifts

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!

Donations from generous matching gift programs ensure transplant patients and their families receive the support they need while seeking treatment in the Texas Medical Center.

Requesting a matching gift or volunteer grant is normally a five-minute process that must be initiated by the donor/volunteer. You can do this by filling out and submitting a paper match form provided by your employer or through an electronic submission process.  Please search our database for company-specific information.

Volunteer grant programs are corporate giving programs in which companies provide monetary donations to organizations where employees volunteer regularly. If you volunteer with us, it’s an easy way to provide us with additional financial support!

Yes! Many companies offer volunteer grant programs that allow you to turn your time into even more mission impact. They’ll donate to our mission to thank you for your time—whether that be event volunteering, skill-based volunteering, being on a volunteer committee, or even administrative volunteering. Visit our volunteer page to learn more about the opportunities we offer at Nora’s.

1. Donate to Nora’s Home.
2. Log into your company’s matching gift submission website (if you use the Double the Donation search tool, you will receive a follow-up email linking to this page).
3. Once logged in, search for the nonprofit that you donated to.
4. Select the appropriate nonprofit from the search results. If it is not found, manually enter the organization’s details.
5. Register the donation.
6. Submit the completed matching gift request to your employer.

Once complete, Nora’s Home and your employer will communicate to verify your initial donation, and complete the match, if eligible.

If you submit your matching gift or volunteer grant outside of the nonprofit’s online donation form or dedicated matching gifts page, contact the nonprofit directly to notify them of the request, so they may track the matching funds as needed.

If you forget to submit your matching gift after selecting your company at the time of donation, you will receive a series of auto-generated emails prompting you to submit your match. The majority of companies offer an all-electronic matching gift submission process.

While your donation to a 501(c)3 organization is tax-deductible, your matching gift is not tax-deductible. Only your contributions are eligible for tax deduction. Each party involved (yourself and your employer) can only take deductions for contributions they directly made to Nora’s Home.

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.  For questions regarding submitting a matching gift or volunteer grant request to us, please contact us using the information provided below.
