How It Works

ABOUT MATCH DAY:

Match Day is an opportunity to help nonprofit organizations grow their financial resources! Our hope is the donations received during Match Day can help the nonprofits’ current needs while the endowment fund at SCCF can help fulfil their future goals. 

Make a gift to your favorite participating local nonprofits. The more you give, the more your favorite charities receives from the potential $70,000 match pool. Early bird giving starts November 14th - 27th, with the Match Day event hosted on Tuesday, November 28th, the day known globally as Giving Tuesday.

HOW IT WORKS

  • Donation Period: November 14th - November 28th, 2023.
  • Each participating nonprofit’s endowed fund is entitled to 100% of community contributions, plus a percentage of the match pool. Thanks to an incredible opportunity from the Patterson Family Foundation, SCCF has a 1 to 1 matching grant, up to $70,000, available to our nonprofits in our seven counties.
  • All donations are tax-deductible. Donors will receive a receipt detailing the amounts and benefiting organizations by December 31st, 2023.
