Do you work for Microsoft®?
Do you work for Microsoft®? Your volunteer hours are now matched
with dollars!
Microsoft® has announced a new time matching benefit for Microsoft® employees.
Each full-time Microsoft® employees’ annual charitable matching
benefit now includes a match for employee gifts of volunteer time as
well as money.
Microsoft® will now match employees’ time that they volunteer
in the community, donating $17 per hour to the eligible organizations
they serve:
- This benefit started October 3, and will count all time volunteered
after that date (it is not retroactive).
- Employees must volunteer 10 hours with a single organization before
they can apply for a match. After the initial 10 hours, they can request
a cash match in one hour increments.
- Organizations eligible for the new volunteer time matching program
are the same as those Microsoft® supports through its Employee Giving
programs: 501(c) 3 nonprofit agencies (including the Alpha Tau Omega
Foundation) and educational institutions across the U.S.
