Matching Gifts

Many companies offer matching gift programs to their employees. Check with your employer to find out if your company matches employees’ gifts to charitable nonprofit organizations. All matching gifts are used as operating funds.

Gifted Securities

Impact Grants Chicago accepts donations of stock in a publicly-traded company as payment for membership. All stock gifts are tax-deductible as allowed by law.

Electronic transfer is the easiest method of gifting stock when a donor maintains holdings in a brokered account. Impact Grants Chicago can assist you with this process.

For more information about either of these opportunities, please contact our Treasurer at treasurer@impactgrantschicago.org.

Impact Grants Chicago welcomes support for women who wish to join but may require financial assistance. Donors may choose to sponsor a friend or family member or someone from our list of potential members seeking a sponsor.
