Employer Matching Gifts

The American Cancer Society (ACS) is working to end cancer as we know it, for everyone. To make the most impact, we need the support of our ​community to help us continue investing in breakthrough research and supporting people with cancer by arranging free rides to cancer treatment, ​providing lodging near hospitals, and operating our 24/7 cancer helpline.

What is a traditional ​matching gift?

Thousands of companies have a matching gift ​program, which means they may match donations ​made by their employees to nonprofits like the ​American Cancer Society.


These matching donations come from the company ​and can directly benefit your fundraising efforts.

Where can I find out if my ​employer has a matching gift ​program?

Not sure if your employer has an eligible matching gift ​program? You can search for your employer on our ​matching gift website.


If your company is eligible, you can follow the ​instructions on how to request a matching gift from ​your employer. We’ll take it from there!


To ensure your matching gift is for the correct ​organization, use the ACS EIN: 13-1788491

Matching Gifts

Many employers sponsor matching gift programs and will match any ​charitable contributions or volunteer hours completed by their ​employees. To find out if your company has a matching gift policy, ​please enter your employer’s name below.


If your company is eligable, instructions on how to request a matching ​gift from your employer will be emailed to you. Complete the steps ​provided and we will do the rest. The impact of your gift to the ​American Cancer Society may be doubled or possibly tripled! Some ​companies match gifts made by retirees and/or spouses.

See if your company will match your one-time fundraising.

  • Companies may not have a traditional matching gift program, but they may consider a one-time match to your fundraiser!
