Every donation made during Give to the Max Day will receive a portion of the $500,000 match.

*Individual donation transactions greater than $2,500 will be eligible for matching gifts up to $2,500 only. For example, if a
donor makes a $2,500 donation to an organization, the full $2,500 will be eligible to receive a portion of the matching funds. If
instead she donated $10,000 to an organization, only $2,500 would be eligible to receive a portion of the matching dollars.
Examples of how the matching dollars will work: if Give to the Max Day inspires $500,000 in donations, we will provide $1 in
matching funds per dollar donated to an organization; if Give to the Max Day inspires $2,000,000 in donations, we will provide
$.25 in matching funds per dollar donated to an organization.
