Corporate Gift Matching

Many companies have programs through which they will “match” the charitable contributions made by their employees. Through corporate gift matching, your employer can multiply your gift to Lazarus Ministries at Grand Avenue Temple.

Check with your company’s Human Resources office to see if they offer gift matching. (If they don’t, you may want to ask your company to start one.) If your employer does offer this program, your Human Resources department should provide you with a matching gift form, which you should fill out and send to our office along with your donation:

Lazarus Ministries at Grand Avenue Temple
205 East Ninth Street
Kansas City, MO 64106

Upon receipt, we verify your gift and return the form to your company and wait for our matching funds!

Conditions and criteria for gift matching programs differ by employer. Some companies even offer a payroll deduction plan. For more information or if you are not sure if Lazarus Ministries qualifies for your company’s gift matching program, please contact us dirlazmin@grandavenuetempleumc.org.

Donate Stock

Electronic delivery of stock shares is the most secure and expedient delivery process available and provides efficient internal control as well as cost savings. However, you may also transfer certificates directly.
