Any donation made to an eligible charitable organization or school can receive a matching gift from the Intel Foundation by using the Benevity portal.
After logging into the Benevity portal, your donation can be matched in two ways. You can make a one-time or recurring donation to eligible organizations using a credit card or PayPal, and these donations will automatically generate the Intel Foundation match—no request for the match or receipt is necessary. Alternatively, you can request a match in the portal for a donation you made directly to an eligible organization using cash, check, stock, etc. A valid receipt** from the recipient organization is required to submit a request.
To participate in this program contact support@benevity.org. Indicate you are a U.S. retiree and provide your WWID to begin the process of creating an account. Benevity will verify your WWID, then will reply with a temporary password, the URL to log in, and other instructions.
Once you have created a Benevity account, use this URL: https://intel.benevity.org to log in to your account to utilize Intel’s Matching Gift program.
