Matching gifts and Volunteer grants
We humbly wish to inform all of you that there are more ways you can help SJKS double or raise more money registering SJKS with your employer and making SJKS eligible for two types of grant programs based on programs your employers offer:
Matching gift
Corporations often give money to non-profit entities in the form of a matching gift which means that if you as an employee donates to SJKS, your employer will donate money to SJKS according to a predetermined match ratio (usually 1:1). If your employer approves a 1:1 matching grant, your dollars to SJKS will be doubled.
Volunteer Grants
These are corporate giving programs that encourage volunteerism in communities where employees live and work. SJKS is a 501(C)3 corporation and is eligible to receive volunteer grants. Programs effectively turn supporter time and effort into funds. You can get a volunteer grant by registering SJKS with your employer in the program, after you determine your eligibility through a search. Once you’re eligible for a volunteer grant to SJKS through your company, you can submit your volunteer grant application using the forms. The company will then process the application and make a monetary donation to SJKS you have volunteered with.
Our Sponsors
We feel grateful to our sponsors, and owe them a lot
