Alumni Gift Giving policy

AnneLa

I have been asked to prepare a policy in which our company would match any gift made by an employee to the college of their choice. Does anyone have a sample policy that they can share with me detailing the dollar limits and time frames if any? I've called several local colleges without any success.

Here is one policy that might help.

The Company encourages all regular full-time salaried employees to make financial contributions to educational institutions, hospitals, and cultural organizations. The Company will match contributions in the amount of $20 or more made by an employee up to an aggregate amount of $10,000 per year per employee as follows: A) Eligible educational institutions (elementary schools, secondary schools, colleges, and universities) -- 2 for 1. Example: Employee gives $100 - Company will donate $200. NOTE: Donations to athletic scholarship funds are not eligible for the Matching Gifts Program. Eligible hospitals and cultural organizations - 1 for 1. Example: Employees gives $100 - Company will donate $100.

I hope this helps.

Thank you for the information. It has certainly given me a starting point.
