Natixis matches all donations with a 100% top-up. Two months after the scheme’s launch, the results for December are promising, with more than 424 donors and more than €5,000 raised. In 2020, the MicroDon platform will be rolled out to encourage time giving and offer employees different ways of supporting charity.
