Matching Gifts
Many companies match the philanthropic contributions of their employees on a 1:1 or 2:1 basis. The donor usually obtains a form from the company’s personnel office, and can include the form with the Annual Fund gift. Stone Ridge then submits the form to the company’s matching gift department, and a check is sent directly to Stone Ridge. Upon receipt of the matching gift, the donor is notified. Also, all matching gifts are counted towards a donor’s membership in one of the Annual Fund Giving Clubs. To find out if your company provides matching gifts to educational institutions, contact your personnel office.

Appreciated Securities
