Corporate matching gifts are a great way for members to maximize personal contributions to the APS/APRL and increase the impact of their gift. By taking advantage of a company's matching gift benefit, you may be able to double or even triple the amount of your contribution!
How do I get my gift matched?Each company has its own guidelines for employees, spouses, retirees, and widows/widowers. Some companies will match gifts to the American Philatelic Research Library but not to the American Philatelic Society. Other companies only match to a small number of selected charities.
Traditionally the procedure involves
Request a Matching Form from your company.
Complete and submit the form to APS along with your gift.
We will confirm the completed form and return it to your company.
A matching gift is then submitted by the company.
Completed Matching Gift Forms can be sent with your gift to:
100 Match Factory Place
Bellefonte, PA 16823
Some companies no longer use paper forms and now require completion of an online form. If your employer requires an Employer Identification Number (EIN) (i.e. Federal Tax Identification Number), please use 24-0772797 for the American Philatelic Society and 25-1213435 for the American Philatelic Research Library.
If you have any questions regarding your company’s matching gift program, please contact your personnel/human resource office directly. Feel free to provide them our contact information should they have any questions.
