Questions?

  • What if my employer/company doesn’t show up when I search for them?

    • Not every employer/company participates in employee matching programs. However, there’s also a chance that they just haven’t been added to the system. The next time you donate to The Cultivation Project, please follow the process below to submit a matching request from your employer/company:

  • How does the employer matching work?

    • The platform that we use for employer matching is called Amply. Generally, employers/companies want to show appreciation to their employees by matching donations given by the employees, so they participate in these employer matching programs. As a result, when you give to 501(c)(3) non-profit organizations such as The Cultivation Project, your donation may be eligible to be matched by your employer through Amply. If your employer/company participates in the program and matches the donation, we will receive a check from your employer/company for almost the same amount (minus processing fees).

    • *Because we are a faith-based non-profit organization, not all employers/companies are willing to match donations towards us. However, it doesn’t cost anything extra to try and submit a match with your existing employer/company.

  • Do I have to pay anything?

    • When a donation match is made by your employer through Amply’s platform, Amply takes a 10% cut of the matched donation as a processing fee. For example, if you donate $100 and it qualifies as a match from your employer, your employer will also contribute $100, and after a 10% processing fee of the matched donation by your employer, a total of $190 will be sent to The Cultivation Project.

  • Are my donations still considered tax-exempt to The Cultivation Project?

    • Yes! Because we are a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, your donation is considered tax-exempt. Your personal contributions are recorded by our accounting team and we will send you a contribution summary at the beginning of the new year for your tax records.
