Matching gifts
Matching gifts are an easy way to double (sometimes triple!) your donation to the Oregon Zoo Foundation.
Double or triple your donation!
Double or triple the impact of your contributions to the Oregon Zoo Foundation through gift matching! Many employers have matching gift programs for current employees, and some companies will match gifts from spouses, retirees and surviving spouses of retirees.
We work with some of the best employers in the Pacific Northwest, including Nike, Intel, The Standard and PGE.
Use the search tool below to find out if your company will match your donation. From there, you can access the forms, guidelines and instructions needed to submit a matching gift request.
Thank you for going above and beyond!
How to Make a Matching Gift
If your employer matches gifts, your donations to the Oregon Zoo Foundation can be doubled or even tripled. Maximize your qualifying gift in a few simple steps:
1. Check the eligibility of your donation
Search our database to see if your employer matches donations to the Oregon Zoo Foundation. You may be able to use a previous donation or you may need to make a new donation to be eligible for matching.
2. Review matching gift instructions
Select your company from the search results to find instructions for your employer's matching gift program.
3. Submit your match request
Follow your company-specific instructions to complete your matching gift request.
