Thank you for supporting Give to Blue Day!


Challenges and Matching Gifts

Don't miss the opportunity to multiply your gift! Challenges and matching gifts are commitments from other Sycamores to help encourage greater participation and to increase the overall excitement on Give to Blue Day. Donors can "challenge" others to join them in supporting a certain area, program, or priority by committing to give a certain amount when their challenge goal is met. Challenges may be tied to the number of donors or the total dollars contributed. Matches work specifically to "match" every dollar that is given to an area, thus doubling the impact of each contribution. To help unlock one of these challenges or matches, find an area that is important to you and see what is available.
