Matching gifts and workplace giving programs are an easy way to have even more impact on the places that you love – with very little effort involved. Not sure where to start?

Setting up a workplace giving payroll deduction is easy, and is usually done through your company’s human resources department.

There are lots of companies who have workplace giving programs for their employees, including Alaska Airlines, Costco, Cambia, Dell, Liberty Mutual, Microsoft, and Symetra.
More than 18 million individuals work for companies with matching gift programs – that’s a lot of potential supporters! Many companies, including Boeing, Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, Microsoft, PACCAR, Starbucks, and Alaska Airlines, will match their employees’ giving. See if your company is one of them using our matching gift searching tool below.
Gifts your employer may match include individual donations made through an automatic payroll deduction, gifts made through our website or sent by mail, gifts made through a Donor Advised Fund (DAF), donations made supporting a climber participating in one of our fundraising climbs, or contributions made at our annual Auction for the Parks*.
*Please note that only the charitable portion of ticket sales or auction items applies
Not only do many companies match financial contributions, but several will also contribute in your name for the hours you volunteer in Mount Rainier, North Cascades, and Olympic National Parks.
Companies often contribute anywhere from $10 to $30 per volunteer hour served – including national companies like Aetna, Verizon, Dell, and Allstate, as well as local companies here in the Seattle area, like Boeing. Microsoft is another local company that offers volunteer matching, donating $25 per hour its employees volunteer to WNPF in support of our national parks!

There are many reasons why our supporters choose to give to Washington’s National Park Fund through their company’s workplace giving programs. Workplace giving offers employees the chance to make a long-lasting commitment with a one-time effort. Plus, workplace campaigns alleviate the burden of fundraising within the company, leaving more resources available for effective programming.
Small donations from many employees add up – especially with an employer matching program. Your company has demonstrated a commitment to giving back. Showing your support is a way of saying “I’m in!”
