Please follow the instructions provided by your fund regarding minimum contribution, the process for recommending grants, etc.
Matching Gifts
Many companies sponsor matching gift programs that will match contributions made to the Museum by the company’s employees or their employees’ spouses. Please note that as of September 2022, Princeton University does not accept matching gifts from companies subject to fossil fuel dissociation. View the list of companies.
If you do not see your company listed, you may contact your human resources department to learn whether your employer has a matching gift program.
