GIVE FROM YOUR DONOR-ADVISED FUND
Giving from your donor-advised fund (DAF) is one of the easiest ways to maximize your impact on YWCA’s services. If you have a DAF you can initiate a grant recommendation through your account manager. Please use our legal name and federal tax ID.
MAKE A GIFT OF STOCK AND/OR OTHER SECURITIES
You can support YWCA through a gift of appreciated stock, bonds, or mutual funds and save on taxes. Reach out to our Philanthropy Department to receive our investment account details.
DOUBLE YOUR DONATION WITH WORKPLACE GIVING
When you give through your employer match program, your donation can be matched dollar-for-dollar! Check if your employer matches your gifts by connecting with your HR department or reviewing your employee benefits documents.
No matching gift program at your company? Many employers also offer giving options through payroll deduction. You can designate a one-time or recurring gift through your employer’s preferred platform, such as Benevity or United Way.

SUPPORT OUR EVENTS
YWCA Golden Gate Silicon Valley hosts four annual signature events designed to build awareness about our mission to eliminate racism and empower women, foster community, and raise funds that help us to maintain our life-changing, and sometimes life-saving, services.
Each unique event offers an opportunity for individuals to connect with our mission as an event attendee or volunteer, and allows companies to deepen their community impact through sponsorship.
ORGANIZE A FACEBOOK FUNDRAISER
Build community and awareness around YWCA’s mission by starting a fundraiser for your birthday, anniversary or just because!
MAKE AN IN-KIND DONATION
Survivors are often starting over and need items like basic household items, clothing, and school supplies.
The Bloom retail store and client dressing program are powered by donations from individuals and manufacturers. We accept children’s, teens', women’s, and men’s clothing, jewelry, accessories, and shoes that are in season and gently used or new. We accept items that are current (no more than 3 years old) and do not have stains, rips, or tears.
Please contact our Philanthropy Department to inquire into YWCA’s current in-kind needs.
VOLUNTEER YOUR TIME
YWCA Golden Gate Silicon Valley offers many opportunities to serve the community. Volunteers power our mission to eliminate racism and empower women by making a critical impact through direct service, administrative support, event engagement, and more.
