How your matching gift makes an impact
At St. Jude, families never receive a bill for treatment, travel, housing or food — so they can focus on helping their child live. A matching gift program allows employers to support employee donations to St. Jude and help make an impactful gift even more so by doubling or tripling the gift—at no additional cost to the employee.
By using an employer’s matching gift benefit, donors increase their impact on our lifesaving mission: Finding cures. Saving children.®
