ESTATE AND ASSET GIVING
Matching Gifts
Your match matters. Does your company have a matching gift program?
Your Match Matters
Your matching gift supports immediate critical needs. During the pandemic and in the fallout occurring now, your match is more important than ever as Love Columbia commits to service in our city.
3 Simple Steps:
Step 1:
Ask if your employer has a matching program.
Step 2:
Complete the Matching Gifts Form for your company (often available from the Human Resources department). This form may require Love Columbia’s tax identification number, which is 20-8801850.
Step 3:
Send the completed form along with your donation or receipt from your recent donation to:
Love Columbia
Attn: Donor Development
1209 E Walnut
Columbia, MO 65201
We will complete our portion of the form and mail it back to your employer.
Are you retired? You may still be eligible to participate through your former employer’s matching gift program!
Is Your Company Not Matching? Get Started Today!
If your company is not matching, ask your human resources department or matching gifts coordinator to consider Love Columbia as a charitable organization for the matching gifts program. They may want the following information:
Love Columbia is a not-for-profit organization recognized as tax exempt under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. Donations are considered tax deductible under section 170 of the code.
Love Columbia serves anyone in Columbia who is struggling to provide for their basic needs or improve their life and wants help to create a path forward. Many of the people we serve have nowhere else to turn. Individual lives and the community are transformed through neighbors helping neighbors. We believe this is best done through a holistic approach where we serve the whole person and engage the whole community. People trying to improve their lives or escape poverty often face complex barriers and need an individualized, multi-faceted approach that addresses informational, relational, material, and spiritual poverty. We can accomplish more if we work together. We avoid duplication, and everyone’s positive outcomes increase . We have an abundance of time, talent, and resources in our community and, if they are well organized and engaged, everyone in the community will be lifted up.
