How it Works

FMI Foundation Donations
How it Works
Freeport-McMoRan Foundation will match employee donations of $25 or more, up to an annual maximum of $40,000. The first $1,000 donated per institution will be double matched and any amount above $1,000 will be single matched, subject to the annual maximum.
Donations designated to be tax credit eligible, may not be eligible for a matching gift from the FM Foundation. Donations made by employees of Freeport-McMoRan that are used in any of the following ways DO NOT qualify for the matching gifts program:

Any donation or payment made to cover the cost to participate in any type of club or activity, including travel expenses for student trips or payment for any kind of school books, publications or equipment for an employee's own child/children.
Funds for school event fees or tickets that will be used by the employee or any member of their family.
Any other type of goods or services paid for by the employee that benefits his/her own child/children, even if the payment is called a "donation."
