Does your company have a CORPORATE GIVING or MATCHING GIFT PROGRAM?

Please consider this often overlooked resource. Such programs are designed to support employee's charitable giving. It's essentially free money - your donation could possibly be doubled!

Employee matching gifts often are dollar-for-dollar, but some companies will give double or even triple the original donation. Procedures vary with each company. To find out if your company has matching gifts just check with your payroll or human resources office. 

Oakton HS PTSA is a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit organization and your donation is tax deductible.
