Matching Gift Challenge

Make your gift now, and we will make sure it counts toward the Matching Gift Challenge when it launches on October 20.

Here’s your chance to amplify your impact on a child’s future! During our Matching Gift Challenge, generous local donors will match gifts, making your support go even further for kids in our community.

This year, instead of having this challenge extend the last few months of the year, we plan to condense it into three days of community-wide giving, from October 20-22, 2026.

Two Ways to Get Your Gift Matched

• Participation Match
  The first 200 donors with gifts between $1-$999 will receive an additional $250 match on their gift. That means $10 becomes $260, $25 becomes $275, $50 becomes $300 and so on.  
• Leadership Giving Match 
  To ensure transformational giving remains a key part of the campaign, gifts of $1,000 or more will receive a dollar-for-dollar match.
