Many employers have matching gift programs that employees can use to multiply their charitable donations.

Contact your employer's Human Resources department to see if your employer has a matching gift program. If so, request a copy of their form. It will have instructions on how to get your gift to Franklin Flyers PTSA matched.

Take note of the information on your employer's matching gift form:

  • Other employers recognize your Franklin Flyers PTSA volunteer service hours with a company grant to the PTSA.

  • Note: Occasionally an employer will only match donations to the educational institution itself (i.e. the school) and not to a PTSA. If this is the case, let us know and we can help facilitate the transaction with the school.
