AI agent for fundraisers

Corporate Matching Gift Agent

Eligible matching gifts are submitted and received

Corporate Matching Gift Agent: what goes in, what the agent does and what you get

What it does

Many employers match donor gifts, and most donors never fill out the form. Fundraisers miss that money because it is a manual lookup. This agent compares each donor's employer with a list of matching gift programs. For eligible gifts it finds the program's rules, deadline and form or link, and drafts a short reminder to the donor with that link. It checks later in the gift records and the employer portal reports whether the match was submitted or received. It continues follow-ups until the match is received or the deadline passes. The fundraiser approves outreach. Edge case: the donor works at a company that only matches gifts to certain causes, so the agent checks the cause first.

How it works

Follow the arrows from top to bottom. The orange dashed arrow is the loop: when a check fails, the agent goes back and tries again.

How it decides

A gift is eligible when the employer has a program that covers this cause and amount and the deadline has not passed. Follow-ups stop on receipt or deadline.

  • Mark eligible only when cause, amount and date fit the program
  • Remind at 7 days after the gift, then every 21 days
  • Stop at the program deadline
  • Skip donors who gave anonymously or asked for no contact

An example run

What happensA donor gives $250 and works at a company that matches up to $1,000 for registered nonprofits within 90 days. The agent finds the form and drafts a reminder. After 21 days no match is logged. A follow-up goes out on day 28. The match of $250 is received on day 52. For another donor, the program excludes arts groups, so the agent drops it.
