To our knowledge, the following local companies offer matching gifts, donations made by a corporation or
foundation on behalf of an employee to match that employee’s contribution to a nonprofit organization, when
their employees make a personal donation to a nonprofit organization. This means that your employer may be
willing to match all or part of your donation amount with its own donation to Brighter Beginnings.
A partial list of Bay Area corporations and foundations with matching gift programs is included below. Contact
your Human Resources department for information about your company’s program. If you find that your unlisted
employer does offer a matching gift program, please let us know so that we can add them to our list.
* Our list was compiled from other lists found online and may not be comprehensive or up to date, so please check
with your employer. Your employer will provide you with all the information needed to process your matching gift.
If you need to request any information from Brighter Beginnings to help fulfill your matching gift request, please
contact our Development Associate, Preethi Kembaiyan, at pkembaiyan@brighter-beginnings.org.
** Many organizations require a valid government tax ID number to verify the non-profit status of the benefiting
organization. Brighter Beginnings’ tax ID number is 94-2949749.
