Why Join The Matching Program?

Why should you join the Matching Program instead of donating directly to a charity? The answer is easy. You have the possibility of having more funds to donate if you use the program.  Need to see proof? Look at the following examples.

 
Let's say you are a member of your local church.  Your church currently has 50 members who donate $50.00 per month to the church. So the church is currently receiving $2500.00 per month in charity donations. ( $50 X $50 = $2500.00) Which is great for your church. However, if those 50 people were enrolled in the Donation Matching Program the funding provided to the church would be much greater. Look at what the church could be receiving if all 50 were involved the the Matching Program.

# of People	Stage of Matching	Amount of Donations
50	No Matching	$2,500.00
50	Stage 1	$5,000.00
50	Stage 2	$12,500.00
50	Stage 3	$50,000.00
Yearly Amount at Stage 3		$600,000.000
Yearly Amount without matching		$30,000.00
Difference		$570,000.00

Of course, the above table is making some assumptions.  It is possible that not everyone of the 50 people reaches the Patron Stage. Realistically, some would be at stage 3, some at stage 2 and some at stage 1, and some might decide it's not for them. We are also assuming that members donate all matching funds to the church.  However, if everyone did reach stage 3 - Patron, the table above would be accurate. Imagine your funding increasing from $30,000.00 per year to $600,000.00!

The more members you have the more exciting the results can be for your organization. Just imagine if your cause has 150 members currently donating $50.00 per month. Check out what happens when they switch to the matching program.

# of People	Stage of Matching	Amount of Donations
150	No Matching	$7,500.00
150	Stage 1	$15,000.00
150	Stage 2	$37,500.00
150	Stage 3	$150,000.00
Yearly Amount at Stage 3		$1,800,000.00
Yearly Amount without matching		$90,000.00
Difference		$1,710,000.00

The same assumptions apply.  But think of the possibilities of what could be accomplished if your funding rose by $1,710,000.00 per year! It is all possible with our Donation Matching Program!
