Establish a Match

When your business matches employee or customer donations, you double the impact of every gift and show that giving is part of your culture. Even a modest company match can motivate more people to participate and demonstrate your commitment to the community you serve. 

To get started, build your Giving Page and add a matching grant — or let us do it for you! Have questions? We're happy to help.

🚀

Fund a Prize Boost

By funding a prize to boost donations, your business helps local nonprofits raise more support while gaining visibility as a champion for the causes in our region. It’s a fun, high-energy way to inspire giving and make a meaningful difference — peek at the Prizes page for examples from Sacramento Republic and Crowe! 

To get started with your company's branded  prize boost, email Kelly Siefkin.

Sponsor the Day

Sponsors help power the event that brings together more than 900 local nonprofits and thousands of donors. In return, your business is recognized as a community partner that stands alongside the organizations working every day to build a vibrant region.

Facilitate a giving campaign for your team right on this website! 

It's easy to create a branded page that inspires local giving, encourages employee loyalty, and offers you real-time reporting about your impact!

Encourage your audiences to support local nonprofits with a branded Giving Page for your business, just like local communications firm, 3Fold Communications. You can track donations, win prizes to boost your team's donations, and if you like, feature specific causes that matter to your team and offer match opportunities!
