The Power of Matching Gifts

Alumni know their gifts to Montclair State University have a powerful impact on the student experience. Many companies support a matching gifts program, allowing alumni to increase the impact of their giving.

Matching gift programs are provided by companies in support of the philanthropic causes of their employees. Through these programs, companies match employee donations that are made to eligible organizations. 

“Matching gifts have an enormous impact on Montclair State,” says Nick Bellucci, Director of Annual Giving. “They instantly increase their gift and allow the gift to do so much more.”

These programs are a great way for companies to support higher education and a chance for graduates to double or even triple a gift to Montclair State. This past academic year, Montclair State was proud to receive 146 gifts that were matched by companies including KPMG, Johnson and Johnson, The Coca-Cola Company and more.
