Employer Matching
Company Gift Matching is a program that most employers offer to their employees for charitable donations. When you make a donation and report it to your employer through their matching gift program, they will also make a contribution based on a certain percentage of your donation, some even donate 1:1. That's it; no strings attached. This makes your dollars go even further.
To find out more about Company Gift Matching Programs, contact your Human Resources department and ask them if they have a program and how to sign up.
Companies today not only match employee donations, some also encourage them to donate their time for nonprofits and compensate the nonprofit for the employee’s time. Some examples of the giving programs offered by employers are:
- Donations through an employee payroll withholding deduction
- Volunteer support for a charitable event
- Employee matching gifts
- Employee volunteer grants
Shopping or Reward Points
-
eBay for Charity partnered with PayPal Giving Fund in order to connect eBay users with their favorite charities. LGDA receives 100% of every eBay donation through shopping, selling or direct donation as part of the eBay for Charities program. You do not need a separate login from your regular eBay account to donate. Be sure to choose PayPal for the transactions that you wish to have donated to LGDA!
Options for Donating
Shopping – eBay buyers can choose to shop items that benefit LGDA in the eBay “Charity Shop,” including digital gifts through “Gifts That Give Back.” There are many benefits to selling on eBay for charity, including seller fee credits equal to the percentage elected to donate, and tax credits for the donation. Additionally, your listings could sell faster and for higher prices with as little as a 10% donation to charity.
Selling – eBay sellers can choose to donate a portion of item sale proceeds to a participating charity when they list an item for sale. The percentage of proceeds donated is determined by the seller, and the amount of the proceeds (i.e. the donation) is tax deductible.
Direct Donation – donate directly at checkout when you choose PayPal as your payment method.
