Matching Gifts

Alumni and friends can maximize the impact of their gifts to OU through matching programs that are most commonly available through donors’ employers. More than 9,500 corporations and foundations match employee contributions to educational institutions.

Most matches are dollar-for-dollar, effectively doubling – or in some cases even tripling – the value of donors’ gifts. Some companies match the gifts of retirees and spouses as well as those of active employees.
