John Deere Foundation Programs: Dollars for Doers and Matching Gifts

Alumni, Parents, Staff, and School Supporters:

The John Deere Foundation Programs--Dollars for Doers and Matching Gifts--includes the Bosco Catholic School System as an eligible cause! 

John Deere matches donations of cash or volunteer hours up to a budgeted amount per fiscal year for qualifying non-profit organizations. Cash donations are dollar for dollar and volunteer hours are funded at $20 per hour, also up to a budgeted amount. In 2023, John Deere matched each employee’s contributions or volunteer hours up to $3500. Cash donations are tax deductible, and an official tax receipt can be downloaded from the Power for Good tool.

• Use this link to Power for Good to submit your match or hours: My Dashboard | Power for Good (benevity.org). 
• The Bosco Catholic School System number for the matching is 530196617_024426.

Eligible employees are active US John Deere employees, full-time salaried and production employees and salaried employees in the Part-time Employee Program.

Thank you for supporting the Bosco Catholic School System.

More details on Dollars for Doers Program:  The John Deere Foundation may provide a grant to any qualifying organization at which an employee volunteers at a rate of $20 per hour up to a budget amount per employee per year.  The employee must be volunteering with the recipient organization at the time the grant is requested, not a year later.  The program follows Deere & Company’s fiscal year (1^st of November to 31^st of October).  Dollars for Doers gifts must be submitted in the Power for Good tool on or before the 31^st of October, to be eligible, in accordance with the program guidelines. Employees should verify this is still correct as details could change.
