Employer Matched Funding
Did you know that many companies in the UK offer to match the fundraising efforts of their employee for a registered charity? Matched funding gives your employees the chance to boost their fundraising as your business matches the money an employee has raised for PANDAS Foundation. Some companies offer this on a pound-for-pound basis, while others will specify the amount they’re prepared to give.
There are several platforms you can choose from to set up your matched funding scheme. You can also customise it to suit the criteria you’re willing to match. Match funding enhances corporate social responsibility and shows a company cares about what an employee is passionate about. By supporting employee fundraising and donating to a charity it adds value to a company’s brand.
If you are part of a business that might be interested in doing this, or who does this already, then please do let us know. Perhaps your business or organisation might be interested in hosting a fundraising event for PANDAS instead?
We’d love to hear from you and discover how your company can work with us.
