Many companies offer a matching gift program to encourage philanthropy among their employees, and some companies will even match donations from spouses and retirees.

By simply completing a matching gift form (online or paper), you may be able to double, or even triple, the impact of your gift to BROOD. Contributions of any amount help BROOD save and care for homeless hounds.

Check with your payroll administrator to see if BROOD is on your company's list of approved charities in your workplace contribution campaign. If we are not listed, ask if you can write us in or have us added to the list.

Some employers now have online matching gift systems. Here is the basic information that you will probably need for the matching gift process:

• BROOD's legal name is Basset Rescue of Old Dominion, Inc
• Our tax identification number is 54-1896211.
• Our mailing address is 3445 Seminole Trail, Box 248, Charlottesville, VA 22911.

If you have a matching gift form from your employer, please mail it to this address.
