Employers often match the gifts their employees make directly to non-profit organizations, too, and some match donations by spouses/domestic partners and by retirees. Some companies will even “match” volunteer hours with dollars as well. These programs go by a variety of names. See some examples by clicking here. To support innovative educational programs in Avon, check with your employer and your spouse’s to see if they will match your gift of money or time to the Avon Education Foundation.

The Avon Education Foundation (AEF) is a 501(c)(3), non-profit, tax-exempt organization. This means that qualifying donations are tax-deductible as permitted by law.
