Support SFFILM

At SFFILM, we’re all about the power of film— how it captivates us, inspires us, and can even drive change in the world. There are so many ways to support what we do: you can sponsor a film exhibition series like our annual Doc Stories or San Francisco International Film Festival, become a member and enjoy special perks, help inspire the next generation through our youth education programs, or back emerging filmmakers by contributing to artist development. However you decide to get involved, your support makes a real difference in shaping the future of film and the storytellers of tomorrow.

Double or Triple Your Gift to SFFILM

Did you know that many companies match their employees’ donations? The process is usually simple, often just requiring a short form provided by your HR Department. Already made your gift? Many employers allow up to one year to submit eligible gifts.

How do I know if my company offers matching donations?

Many companies match their employees’ charitable donations, sometimes dollar-for-dollar or more. Your donation to SFFILM might qualify. Check with your HR department or Employee Resources Group to find out about eligibility and submission requirements.

You can search your database for our tax-ID or legal name: 94-2663216 (San Francisco Film Society)

How do I get my donation matched?

If your company participates, visit their matching gift website or get a form from your employer. Submit the completed form with your donation. If you forgot to submit it with your donation, most companies allow up to a year to request a match. The process is usually very simple:

  1. Request a Matching Form from your company.
  2. Complete and submit the form to SFFILM along with your gift.
  3. SFFILM will verify the completed form and return it to the company.
  4. The company issues a matching gift contribution to SFFILM.
