Corporate matching for Zoom Events fundraisers
In order to facilitate corporate matching for fundraiser events, hosts can now configure corporate matching through Pledge. By matching the donations made by your donors during your next Zoom Events, you will be able to maximize the amount of donations you receive from them. It is possible to configure this feature in the Pledge Impact Hub, which can be accessed here.
