Hi! I'm new here and very excited - (I shall make a post in the appropriate section soon 
)
I have seen some previous questions about donation matching by employers, and getting a receipt for manually matching the donation.
My employer also matches 100% and there are two ways:
a) Donating through THEIR online tool (benevity - already TFP is there), and matching automatically.
b) Donating through the cause (in this case TFP) and then requesting a match.
For (a) donation and matching would be automatic, but TFP would need to manually "connect" the donation to my profile - I can add a note to the online donation tool (benevity) employer uses with my username. Or should I email someone after the fact?
For (b) it would need a receipt with a statement that no goods or services were provided in return for the donation, first/last name of donor, receiving organization 501c3 name, donation amount, date of donation.
What would be the preferred route? I think (a) works based on some posts from 2018 I read, I just wanted to make sure!
Thank you and looking forward to being an active member!
