Many employers will help multiply employee and retiree donations by matching their contributions. This means if you give to Special Olympics Michigan, they will too! Some employers also match volunteer time, providing monetary donations to organizations where employees volunteer.

Receive a deduction for the full fair market value and avoid paying tax on your capital gain. This giving option can provide greater tax benefit than a cash gift of the same amount.
