Matching Gifts
If you work for one of over 1,000 companies that match gifts
to institutions of higher education, your gift can make an
even bigger difference at Clarkson. Matching gifts can double
or even triple the value of your gift!
Matching your gift is easy:
- Find out if your company or your spouse's company matches
gifts to your favorite University - Clarkson! Visit Matching
Gifts.Com and click on the button "Free lookup
of Matching Gift Companies" on the right side of the
screen. If your company is not listed, check with your Human
Resources Office to see if they will support your gift to
Clarkson.
- Contact your Human Resources Office for guidelines and
a matching gift form. Each company is different: some use
forms, some use telephone connections, and some use Web
sites to collect information on your gift. (It often takes
several months for Clarkson to receive a match from your
employer, so you may need to apply early to have the match
applied to your gift by June 30, the end of our fiscal year.)
- If your company uses a matching gift form, complete your
section and mail it to:
The Clarkson Fund
Clarkson University
PO Box 5530
Potsdam, NY 13699-5530
Please don't forget, our fiscal year closes on June 30. If
you have any questions, contact us at 315-268-6582 or e-mail the
Clarkson Fund.
