One of the best deals for a donor is when their employer agrees to match their donation. It doubles the gift, and makes your charitable dollars go twice as far! Another new way is to participate is through volunteer matching. Many companies now donate money to organizations based on the hours you do service. Please check with your employer.

Contact Director of Development, Tandee Ogburn at tandee@myhandinhand.org or call our office at (502) 459.9930 if you have questions.

We are delighted to showcase the following list of places that match donations by their employees to Hand in Hand. If your workplace matches donations to Hand in Hand and is not on this list, let us know and we’ll add them to the list.

Hand in Hand has partnered with Panera Bread to deliver food to Wayside Christian Mission for years. Day old baked goods from Panera are picked up by Hand in Hand volunteers and delivered to the shelter.

When it comes to putting on an event, we need lots of help!

– Would you like to donate your time around or during an event?
– If you are an individual or business, would you like to graciously donate a gift card, service or experience for Hand in Hand to use at a future fundraiser? These gifts are often used for silent auctions to raise money for our programs. It is a great way to showcase your business as a generous and charitable community partner.
