Make a Bigger Impact Without Doing More

Last year, just a handful of families unlocked over $8,000 in extra support for Bowman PTO simply by using their employers’ matching programs. When you donate or volunteer, companies like Google, IBM, Microsoft, Moderna, Takeda, Veeva Systems, and many more will match your generosity, turning every dollar or every volunteer hour into twice the impact for our students, staff, and community. Check with your employer about charitable matching programs. We are registered as “Bowman Elementary School PTO Inc.”

Employer Matching Opportunities

• Donation Matching: Employers will match 1:1 or 2:1 for our tax deductible monetary donations.
• Volunteer Grants: Employers make a monetary donation for your volunteer hours.
• Free Rewards/Grants: Grants and rewards given to employees can be donated to Bowman PTO.

How to Participate

• Option 1: Pay as usual in Membership Toolkit for all of your PTO donations and submit your emailed receipt to your employer's charitable matching program.
• Option 2: Choose "Offline Payment" in Membership Toolkit, pay through your employer's charitable program portal, then submit your employer matching receipts using this Google form. Your order in Membership Toolkit will remain with "a balance due" until you have submitted receipts showing you have paid through your employer's matching program (e.g. Benevity, Fidelity Charitable Organizations, BlackBaud YourCause).
