Invest in the power of monthly action for women.
Monthly gifts create stability, deepen our gender‑ and equity‑focused work, and strengthen our ability to respond to emerging needs. Set it once, and your recurring gift — $10 or $100 — becomes a lasting force for change in Washington State.
Double the impact of your gift.
Many employers match donations — or even volunteer hours — and most people don’t realize they qualify. Yet a huge amount of matching dollars goes unused every year.
- Unlock that potential:
- Check whether your employer offers matching gifts
Submit the request online or ask HR for help. Matching funds will support the same purpose as your original gift.
Whether you’re celebrating a birthday, running a bike-a-thon, or feeling inspired to make a difference, the JustGiving platform has you covered! From personal milestones to spontaneous acts of generosity, you can turn any moment into a movement.
