Eligibility: Team Member has a need for assistance that does not meet eligible grant criteria (described above in the policy) and fellow Team Members have raised funds to help fulfill Team Member’s need. Fundraisers should be approved through the proper channels of each market and are not associated with the STAR Fund in any way. It is preferred that the Team Member first apply for and be denied a STAR grant. NOTE: an applicant cannot receive a STAR grant and matching funds for the same event.

Amount: Match of Team funds raised, up to $500 per event. Only one grant is permitted per eligible event, regardless of the number of fundraisers held.

Required Documents: A completed Matching Grant application signed by the GM and Team Member certifying the amount raised by co-workers along with a copy of money order or cashier’s check given to the Team Member in the amount of funds raised.
