Yes! Additional events and giving opportunities will be announced in the coming months. You can always make a direct donation as well.
YES! Often times you can increase your effective donation to MSA by doing a little leg work in advance! Many companies will match donations made by their employee with just a little extra leg work. Here's how to get started:
Check with your company's HR department to see if the company will match your donation to MSA. They often ask "Is MSA an IRS-registered nonprofit?" The answer is yes.
If they do match ask the following questions:
- How much will they match?
- What paperwork would you need to fill out?
- How do you or the school get the matching funds?
- What would you need from MSA to prove you made a donation?
Some companies also make donations if employees volunteer their time, some for as little as 10 hours of volunteer work. We have many opportunities for volunteers, so if you are interested and your company would donate on your behalf, please contact us (info@mnmsa.org).
