Countdown to June 8th – Double or Triple Your Impact!
What: NH Gives
When: June 8-9
How: Visit our NH Gives profile and donate!
Dollar-for-Dollar Matches:
Your donation will have an even greater impact thanks to over $15,000 in matching gifts by generous Five Rivers business supporters and members of our Conservation Leaders Society (CLS). Visit our NH Gives profile to see the match details from four local businesses and members of our Conservation Leaders Society, a dedicated group of sustaining Five Rivers supporters.
Timeline of Five Rivers Dollar-for-Dollar Matches:

NH Charitable Foundation Matches
On top of Five Rivers sponsor matches, your gift – if made online during any of the 10 timeframes of NH Gives Site Wide Match Schedule – may be matched dollar-for-dollar up to $250 by the $300,000 site-wide matching pool made possible by the NH Charitable Foundation and its donors. Below is the NH Gives Site Wide Match Schedule.
June 8: $100,000 at 5pm, and $20,000 at 6pm, 7pm, 8pm, and 9pm. June 9: $20,000 at 8am, 9am, noon, and 3pm, and $40,000 at 4pm.
How to Double, Triple, or Even Quadruple Your Donation!
The many match opportunities you have when donating to Five Rivers means that you can double, triple, and even quadruple your donation!
Example 1: If you donate to Five Rivers at exactly 5pm on Tuesday, your donation will be matched dollar for dollar with our Conservation Leaders Society (CLS) match AND dollar for dollar match with the NH Charitable Foundation match. So if you donated $100, that means $300 for Five Rivers (your donation, the CLS match, plus the Charitable Foundation match)
Example 2 – Five Rivers has two sponsor matches on Wednesday June 9th from Noon to 5pm. So if you donated $100 at Noon on Wednesday, that means $400 for Five Rivers (your donation, the Grappone match, the S&W match, plus the Charitable Foundation match)
Tip for NH Charitable Foundation Matches – The NH Charitable Foundation matches will be in high demand and will be depleted quickly. To have the best chance of getting their match, open Five Rivers’ NH Gives Profile just before any specified match start time, have your donor info and credit card info ready, and then stand by to click “submit” at exactly the appointed hour.
GET READY, SET AND GO FOR NH GIVES!
