The Matching Gifts Program
Help us raise $1,000,000 this year without giving another cent!

As you know, your membership support is the largest single source of revenue for Chicago Public Radio. But did you know that with just a little extra paperwork, you could help us raise an extra million dollars in funds?

Many employers will double—or even triple—your gift to Chicago Public Radio. Ask your human resources department for details or use MatchFinderOnline to check for your employer’s policies and forms.
Why is matching important?
  • A match buys two or three times as much news, information and culture as an unmatched gift would
  • Matching helps make fundraising more efficient
  • A match is like adding one or two extra listeners to our membership, and more listener support ensures Chicago Public Radio is an independent and reliable voice.
Top Ten Matching Companies in 2007:
Abbott Laboratories Foundation
Grainger
John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation
JP Morgan Chase Foundation
Illinois Tool Works Foundation
IBM Corporation
Kraft Employee Involvement Programs
Polk Bros. Foundation
BP Matching Fund Programs
Sara Lee Foundation

Check to see if your employer is a Matching Gifts Company, using using MatchFinderOnline.
