Corporate Matching

Have you made your annual donation to the Sope Creek Foundation? 

 

Did you know that many companies will match that donation, some even up to 2-3 times the amount you’ve donated? All you need to do is contact your HR department to see if they have a corporate matching program and then request a form to fill out, or fill out their online form.

 

**Please note that corporate matching can be done in retrospect, so even if you’ve already completed your annual donation, you may still be able to get the corporate match.**

 

Here is the information you’ll need to fill out the form. Once the school has it, we will follow up to make sure the corporate matching is complete.

Corporate Matching FAQs:

 

Q: How does my company know how much I donated?
A: The emailed receipt you received after making your donation usually includes all the information your company needs. If they request additional information, we’re here to help!

 

Q: Are FAST class payments also eligible for matching?
A: Unfortunately, no. Only donations with no goods or services received in return are eligible for matching.

 

Q: Will the corporate match count toward my child’s class incentives?
A: Unfortunately, matched donations are usually received after our campaign has concluded, so we are not able to include them in class incentive numbers. The impact of your company’s match is still very significant and directly impacts our students and teachers.

 

Q: My company's corporate matching form asks for the Foundation's mission statement and/or history. Where do I find that?
A: Feel free to paste this into your form: "The Sope Creek Elementary School Foundation (SCF), established in 1996, is a fundraising entity that supports Sope Creek Elementary through the financing of projects and initiatives that are outside the school’s regular budget. Through selectively funded program grants, SCF provides unique learning opportunities to students and helps our teachers deliver the best instruction possible. The SCF also manages the school’s FAST program, marquee sign, and organizes annual family events."
