Matching Programs
You can greatly increase the impact of your gift through a matching program — doubling, tripling or even quadrupling the amount of money students receive. It’s an excellent way to make your generosity go even further toward transforming the lives of students and helping York redefine the possible.
Corporate Matching Programs
Many companies offer a matching gift plan to encourage
philanthropy among employees and their spouses. This often doubles or
triples the value of your gift, at no extra cost to you.

your company has a matching gift policy, please enter your employer’s
