We have an alum that has a pledge for $5,000. They work for KPMG Foundation and KPMG sent a check for $10,000. On the check it says donor name. I'm assuming $5,000 is matching gift, however KPMG sent $10,000 which includes the donors portion of the pledge. Can $5,000 be put toward the persons pledge? and then $5,000 as a matching gift? The rule of thumb has been who the check is from gets the hard credit (so that would be KPMG).
