Flanzer Trust Match program

The Louis and Gloria Flanzer Philanthropic trust is a tax exempt 501(c)(3) organization not affiliated with any other member of the Flanzer Family.

About the Program

The Flanzer Matching Program provides the only year-round philanthropic matching program in our area of service.  We match contributions as low as $5 to as much as $500 a month per donor/household to as many of our partners as you like. The maximum that the Flanzer Trust will match per donor to any single agency is $3,000 per year. Unlike other matching programs, the Flanzer Trust absorbs the full cost of the program. No handling surcharges will be deducted from your donation or the trust’s match donation. For example, for every $1 you donate, your selected charity gets $2 with a maximum match of $500 per month up to $3,000 per household, per charity, per year. Our goal is to broaden the base by encouraging NEW contributions, although we recognize that some planned giving will be submitted for matching.
