Matching Gifts
Your gift to the Child Advocacy Center could be matched dollar for dollar by your employer. Many companies offer matching gift programs to support the charitable organizations their employees care about. Contact your Human Resources department directly in order to find out if your employer has a matching gift program. The process is as simple as filling out your employer’s matching gift form and sending it with your contribution.
