Supporting Volunteers
While the AYUDA in-country experience begins in the summer, a volunteer’s journey begins the day they are accepted into their program. To prepare for their programs, volunteers take part in a rigorous online and in-person training program, all while fundraising for AYUDA. Your contributions go directly to implementing AYUDA’s programs and objectives by sponsoring local diabetes projects in-country. Thank you for your support!
To donate to a volunteer’s personal fundraising page, visit the Volunteer Look Up.
Matching Gifts
Thank you for supporting AYUDA's mission! Want to double your impact? Find out if your company is one of the thousands that match employee contributions.
Here are three simple steps for creating a Matching Gift:
1. Search for your company: Use the "Matching Company Name" look-up under the "Employer Donation Matching" headline on our donation form to see if your company participates in matching employee contributions or contact your company's human resource office directly for more details about your company's situation.
2. Enter your gift online: Once you are ready to submit a matching gift, use our online donation form. Be sure to fill out your donation form completely and ask your human resources department if you are unsure about the requirements.
3. Don't stop there! Tell your colleagues about your company's matching gift policy and remember that many companies also match volunteer hours, or gifts from spouses, retirees, and board members!
