Matching Gift Donation
What is a matching gift program?
Matching gift programs are charitable giving programs set up by businesses and corporations in which the company matches donations made by employees to eligible nonprofit organizations like Sheltered Yoga. Matching gifts offer corporations a wonderful opportunity to join with their employees in a partnership which rewards, and is driven by, the employee’s generosity and greatly benefits the nonprofit of choice. Some corporations will even allow a 2:1 match (such as Johnson & Johnson)!
How do I match my gift?
Matching gifts are a great way to double your gift to Sheltered Yoga. Here are some details on how to find out if your employer will match your generous contribution. If your company is eligible, follow these easy steps to watch your generosity double:
-Request a matching gift form from your employer or inquire what website to visit in order to access online forms. The Human Resource department would probably be your best point of contact for any questions about matching gift programs.
-Send the completed and signed form to:

Stock & Securities Transfers and Bequests
Gifts of securities — held by you or by your bank or brokerage — offer significant tax advantages and are easy to make.
Sheltered Yoga requires that gifts of securities to be made via electronic transfer, rather than mailing actual securities certificates. If you are giving a security, please verify with your broker that the security is eligible for electronic delivery over the Depository Trust Company (DTC) system. This works for most securities, but some securities have specific transfer instructions.
Please note that we will liquidate all donations of securities as soon as possible. The date of your gift is the date on which your electronic transfer is received into Sheltered Yoga’s account. The tax-deductible value of your gift is the average share price on the date of your gift multiplied by the number of shares given.
If you would like to make a bequest, please contact the Executive Director, Tina LeMar, at tina@shelteredyoga.org or call her at 610.805.6724.
Once you have generously made a transfer, please contact us at (610) 805-6724 or by email at tina@shelteredyoga.org to inform us of the proposed donation and to ensure that you receive a prompt receipt of your gift for your tax records.
