Matching gifts are often provided by your employer as a benefit that helps to increase the impact of your donation. A company with a matching gift program will make a gift to Hotchkiss when you make your gift, often matching your gift dollar for dollar. For example, if you made a gift of $500, your company would also send $500 to Hotchkiss, making the overall impact of your philanthropy equal to $1,000.
