Donation Matching
Did you know that many companies offer matching for cash donations or
volunteer time? Check with your company's HR department to see if they
offer this. This is a great way to increase your impact, and a great way
to help out the Club.
For example:
* If you donate $50 to the club, your company might match that, and
donate another $50 to the club.
* If you volunteer (at Fright Fest!), your company might match each
volunteer hour with a cash donation to the club.
An organization named Benevity manages these programs for many
companies. The club has recently registered with Benevity, so will now
show up when you search for us.
New Club Contact Emails
