Frequently Asked Questions

Your personal donations to World Vision Canada are tax-deductible, not the matched donation made by your employer.

Employee matching gift programs are a way for companies to match the donations their employees make to charities. By doing this, the company itself engages in philanthropy that supports the interests and concerns of their employees and effectively doubles the impact of your donation, supporting causes like ours and helping children in need.

If your employer's matching gift program is not in our search tool, you can still request a match. Check your company’s intranet or ask your HR department for the matching gift form. To add your employer’s program to our tool, email data@doublethedonation.com. 

Each company sets its own minimum and maximum amounts for matching donations. For specific information on your employer's matching program, use our search tool or contact your HR department.
