Does DEW Foundation offer matching grants?
DEW on occasion has, as part of an NPO fund-raising project, made grants that, up to a maximum grant amount, match contributions made by other contributors. The twofold objective of matching grant offers is to incentivize and assist an NPO to broaden its support base and to incentivize potential contributors to become involved and make contributions they may not otherwise make.
DEW does not generally respond to matching grant offers initiated by other individuals or organizations. Our view is that matching grants are made to incentivize and assist NPO’s to broaden their support base and to incentivize potential contributors to make contributions they may not otherwise make. DEW, on the other hand, is not incentivized by matching grant offers.
