What kind of match?
Starting March 24th, all qualifying projects will receive a 2X match. That means a $20 donation will become a $40 donation.
If your project meets the criteria below, new donations on your project will be matched as long as funding remains. You will see the match offer applied to your project as soon as it is approved and live on the site. Please note, the match offer will not appear during Friends and Family Pre-Funding.

- On the ‘Hi’ step, enter the campaign code NICK
- Create a project that promotes or shares racial equity with your students through the arts.
