COMPANY MATCHING GIFTS
The camp can receive company matching gifts! This is a GREAT way to multiply your donation. Some companies make a matching company donation when you donate, such as Microsoft, via another company named Benevity. The camp is listed in Benevity under RC Activities, with the name "Summer Camp Safety Projects".
To set up a company matching gift you'll have to speak with your company human resources or other representatives.
