Matching Gifts are company-donated contributions that match the contributions made by employees, sometimes on a one-to-one, two-to-one, or even a three-to-one basis. This program enables some donors to increase the impact of their contributions to Cooley Dickinson Hospital.
Cooley Dickinson was founded in 1886 through a bequest from a Hatfield farmer, Caleb Cooley Dickinson (Amherst poet Emily Dickinson's fourth cousin, twice removed). As a locally governed, not-for-profit community hospital, Cooley Dickinson provides convenient, personalized care.
