Employer Matching Rewards
Many companies offer corporate grants to schools in one of the following forms.
Donations of money or equipment matching a donation given by their employee or employee's spouse
Your company might match your contribution to our PTA through a Corporate Matching Program. Many employers sponsor matching gift programs and will match any charitable contributions made by their employees. If your company is eligible, request a matching gift form from your employer, and send it completed and signed with your gift. We will do the rest. The impact of your gift to Mills Park Elementary may be doubled or possibly tripled!
If you are unsure if your company participates in a matching gift program, you can check by contacting your Human Resources department.
DONATIONS OF MONEY OR EQUIPMENT based on number of hours volunteered at the school by an employee or employee's spouse
Your company might pay us for the time you dedicate to your child’s school. That’s right… your volunteer hours can earn money for Mills Park Elementary! Your company’s HR department can tell you if they participate in such a program. Your time is a valuable resource and is greatly appreciated!
Many local companies will donate money to non-profit organizations where employees volunteer.
Below are a few of the local companies offering Matching Grants. If you or your spouse work for one of these companies, please contact your Human Resources department to find out how Mills Park Elementary can receive their generous benefits.
