This week let’s chat about how you might convince your job to start an employee donation matching program so that your charitable giving can go twice as far.

You’ll learn a simple three step plan to find a couple of allies, figure out who the decider is, and how to pitch your idea. Your colleagues will be thrilled that their donations will go farther, and your organization will be glad to have an employee perk that doesn’t cost much and can boost retention. Most importantly, the nonprofits in your community will benefit from your support in doing their good work.

And who knows, after you convince your job to offer matching donations, maybe you’ll be ready to convince them to sign an environmental pledge or offer socially responsible 401(k) or 403(b) options?
