Companies usually match donations. When an employee makes a donation, they can request a matching from their employer. Company matching means that if you donate $10, your company will also donate $10 towards the cause. Companies usually match donations at a 1:1 ratio, but some will match at a 2:1, 3:1, or even a 4:1 ratio.
Step 1: Login to your employer matching website such as Benevity.
Step 2: Search for the non profit, "Care and Share". Please check to make sure it matches EIN 36-3708966 before making your donation
