Corporate Matching

Did you know that many businesses offer a matching gift program as part of their employee benefits package?  That means once you’ve donated to the Panther Fund, there’s a chance your employer will match your donation dollar for dollar!

Spring Hill PTO is a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit organization and therefore eligible to receive corporate matching from companies that provide such programs to their employees.  Please take a moment to see if your employer provides this amazing benefit. If you need assistance or have questions, email the VP of Fundraising at springhillptofundraiser@gmail.com.
