Why do companies support their employee fundraisers?

SIMPLE! To build team spirit, improve their reputation internally and externally and motivate employees!

This is a really easy way to increase, or even double, your employee’s fundraising efforts and unite the company in pursuit of a worthy cause and corporate goals.

A Matched Giving scheme is a joint donation by staff and company; employees make an individual donation, either a percentage of their salary or a variable amount, and the company matches it either '£' for '£' or a ceiling amount they are prepared to give.

Employee raises £100 (Gift Aid Claim £28)
Employer matches raised amount £100

Total Donated to Rett UK £228

Employer matches both amounts £128

Total Donated to RettUK £256

Corporate partners who have participated in this programme reaped the rewards of a successful staff motivation programme and related publicity.

If you're an employee undertaking a fundraising activity for Rett UK, ask your employers if they operate a matched giving scheme and don't forget, we can help you to promote the event on your company newsletters and intranets!
