What is better than a generous gift to UCR? A gift that has been doubled or tripled thanks to a corporate matching gift! Many companies offer a matching-gift benefit to their employees to inspire charitable giving in support of education. Sometimes the gifts of retirees, members of the board of directors, and spouses are also eligible. 

(Please check with your benefits manager. Some companies without formal programs will match your gift, if you ask.)

1. Request a matching gift application from your benefits manager or Human Resources office. Matching policies vary and certain restrictions apply, so please read your company's matching gift program rules.
   
   
2. Take a minute to complete the matching gift application process. Some companies now have web-based or automated phone application processes. Paper applications may be returned, along with your gift, to:
   
   
   Gift Administration
   University of California
   120-A Highlander Hall
   Riverside, CA 92521
   
   
   
3. UCR will verify receipt of your gift and complete the process. Your employer will send an additional gift to UCR on your behalf!

Last fiscal year, UCR alumni, parents and friends took the extra time to apply for matching gifts, which added more than $40,000 to UCR's programs.
