Matching Program

Program Sponsor: Larry and Brenda Potterfield

Geographic Scope: United States

Focus Areas: Supporting youth shooting sports teams through endowment growth

Program Description:
Monthly matching program that multiplies team endowment contributions. Each month, the foundation allocates funds ($60,000 documented in 2018) to match donations made to team endowments. The match ratio is calculated monthly based on total donations received.

How It Works:

• Teams receive donations or conduct fundraisers
• Donations are contributed to their MidwayUSA Foundation Team Endowment
• Matching funds are applied based on monthly ratio
• Example: $50 donation matched at ratio of $.7572 = $37.80 additional contribution
• Contributions from fundraising with foundation's free fundraising products receive the same match ratio

Eligible Contributions:

• Online donations to team endowments
• Check donations
• Proceeds from team fundraisers
• Proceeds from foundation's free fundraising products
• Contributions from partners

Historical Impact:

• 2017: $8,209,670 added to endowments through 2:1 matching program
• February 2018: 180 teams received matching funds ($.7572 match ratio)
• January 2018: 172 teams received matching funds ($.62 match ratio)

Match Ratio Examples:

• January 2018: $.62 per dollar donated
• February 2018: $.7572 per dollar donated
• Ratio varies monthly based on donation volume and available matching funds

Ongoing Benefits:
Endowment growth leads to larger cash grant payouts to teams annually
