The number of companies visible to you inside DonationMatch can vary from event to event. Eligibility is based on a variety of factors set by participating companies themselves. Qualifying criteria often includes location, type of event, audience demographics, and ticket price.
Some organizations have received more than 30 items ($25k+ value) for a single event. Others have only received a few. It is completely up to participating companies to decide which requests to approve.
There are also companies that choose to stay hidden in the product catalog, instead only sending offers to specific organizations. These could also be limited quantities or seasonal offerings.
For the effort it takes to complete a single donation request form, you can reach numerous companies through DonationMatch. Many nonprofits consider us a "no-brainer" (their words, not ours). If you are not already a free member, feel free to sign up today.
