Double Your Donation with Matching Gifts

Many devotees and supporters who contribute to the Ashram do not know that their employer may match their donation, allowing them to make an even greater impact without giving extra.

Corporate matching gift programs allow companies to match employee donations to nonprofit and spiritual organizations, sometimes doubling or even tripling the contribution.

By using a Matching Gift Search, you can quickly check whether your company offers donation matching and learn how to submit a request.

Even a small contribution can create a larger impact in serving society, supporting spiritual growth, helping the poor, and educating youth when it is matched.

Your support helps the Ashram continue:

  • Free daily puja and abhishekam

  • Spiritual and cultural activities

  • Annadanam (free food service)

  • Education support for youth

  • Helping underprivileged communities

When your company matches your donation, you help us serve more people, more effectively.

Your single step can double the service impact of your donation.
