We ask that members of our community participate in giving to the best of their ability given their financial situation. Whether your gift is $100, $1,000 or $10,000, it’s an important statement of gratitude that shows your enthusiastic belief in JSerra’s mission. Every gift matters, no matter the size.

Many companies offer matching gifts for employee contributions to eligible nonprofit organizations. JSerra Catholic High School is a 501(c)3 and may qualify for a double or even triple match to your donation.

Many employers will also honor volunteer hours that an employee has served to be used towards a donation for a matching gift. Some companies even match retiree or spousal gifts to nonprofits, too.

To find out if your company offers matching gifts, we recommend you search your company’s website or contact your human resources department. You may also see if your employer will match your donation using an online database search at CharityNavigator.org.

Inquire whether or not your company has a matching gift program to maximize your gift's impact. To learn more or discuss your interest in leveraging your giving, please contact 949.493.9307 Ext. 1158.
