Frequently Asked Questions
What are employee matching gift programs?
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 SAFE Project!
How is this information obtained?
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
How do I request a matching gift?
Requesting a matching gift is normally a five-minute process that must be initiated by the donor. 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 (using the menu above) for company-specific information.
How do I submit a matching gift?
Donate to SAFE Project.
Log into your company’s matching gift submission website (if you use the Double the Donation search tool embedded above on this web page, you will receive a follow-up email linking to this page).
Once logged in, search for SAFE Project — we are sometimes listed with the full title of “Stop the Addiction Fatality Epidemic (SAFE) Project US” in these listings.
Select SAFE Project from the search results. If it is not found, manually enter the organization’s details.
Register the donation.
Submit the completed matching gift request to your employer.
What if I submit my matching gift or volunteer grant outside of the nonprofit’s online donation form or dedicated matching gifts page?
If you submit your matching gift outside of SAFE Project’s online donation form or dedicated matching gifts page, contact us directly to notify us of the request, so we may track the matching funds as needed.
What if I forget to submit my matching gift request?
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.
Are matching gifts and volunteer grants tax-deductible?
While your donation to a 501(c)(3) organization like SAFE Project 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 the nonprofit.
What if I still have questions?
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 request to us, please contact us directly.
