Homeward Pet Adoption Center. Rescue | Shelter

Does Your Employer Match Charitable Donations?

Many companies today will donate a matching dollar for every dollar you contribute to Homeward Pet Adoption Center. In fact, the majority of Fortune 500 companies support their employees giving back to their community – many even match volunteer hours with a monetary donation back to the organization. It's a great way to effectively double your charitable contributions. If your company doesn't currently match funds, ask your company if they will start. You would be surprised how many companies add this program annually as an employee benefit program.

Below is a partial list of businesses we are aware of that have a matching gift program. Check to see if your company is on the list. If you don’t see your company listed, check with your Human Resources Department. If your company does have a matching gift program, familiarize yourself with the guidelines for the program so that you may complete and submit any required paperwork.

Homeward Pet Adoption Center is a no-kill, non-profit animal shelter serving the Greater Seattle Area. Our mission is to give homeless animals a second chance through our rescue, shelter and adoption programs.

Homeward Pet Adoption Center is a 501(c)(3) charity and donations are tax-deductible.
