MATCH-For-GOOD Frequently Asked Questions

What Non-Profits Need to Know

What is Match-for-Good?

Match-for-Good is a curated network that connects non-profits with businesses that are actively looking to give and build meaningful, aligned partnerships.

We don’t just make introductions — we support and steward partnerships so they are more likely to grow and continue.

What do we receive when we join?

When you join, you receive a structured Partnership Assessment — a clear, actionable review of your current partnerships, positioning, and readiness for corporate alignment.

This ensures you’re not just introduced — you’re prepared.

What does the $475 USD fee cover?

The registration fee covers:

✔ your Partnership Assessment (deliverable)
✔ readiness and positioning support
✔ profile development
✔ inclusion in the Match-for-Good network

Is the registration fee refundable?

No — because the assessment and onboarding support are delivered as part of the process.

How does matching work?

We don’t send lists.

We:
✔ identify businesses preparing to make commitments
✔ assess alignment with non-profits in the network
✔ facilitate introductions when there is a strong fit

What happens after an introduction?

We stay involved.

We provide:
✔ guidance
✔ communication support
✔ ongoing stewardship

Our goal is to help partnerships move forward and grow, not stall.

When does the 10% fee apply?

The Match + Management Fee applies when a financial commitment is secured as a result of a Match-for-Good introduction.

This includes the initial partnership and any renewal or extension of that commitment.

What does the 10% fee NOT apply to?

We do not take a percentage of:
✔ employee giving programs
✔ campaign-based revenue
✔ unrelated or additional funding outside the original partnership

Do we have to pay forever?

No — but there are two types of ongoing fees to be aware of:

1. Network Membership Renewal
Your participation in the Match-for-Good network is active for 12 months. To remain active and continue receiving introductions and stewardship support, an annual renewal fee applies.

2. Partnership Renewals
If a partnership introduced through Match-for-Good is renewed or extended, the Match + Management Fee applies to that renewed commitment.

What if we already know the company?

If you already have an active funding relationship or ongoing funding discussions, you can disclose this within 5 business days.

If confirmed, the Match + Management Fee does not apply to that relationship.

 Do you guarantee funding?

No — and we’re transparent about that.

While we do not guarantee specific outcomes, our model is designed to support strong alignment, meaningful introductions, and partnerships that grow and renew over time.

We focus on:
✔ alignment
✔ readiness
✔ high-quality introductions

Because we are actively involved in the process, it is in our best interest to support partnerships that are successful, sustained, and renewed.

How long are we in the network?

Your participation is active for 12 months, with the option to renew if you’d like to continue.
