Ways to Give

The spirit of our work is embodied in the Tewa concept of wo watsi: with our breath is our commitment to live life as a prayer and view life as a cycle, knowing that what we do and give comes back to us. As Tewah Towah (Tewa peoples), we move in this world with generosity and a life-affirming reciprocity.

We welcome your generosity to support our programs and projects. Your donation is a powerful expression of solidarity with our mission to embody courageous spaces that center Indigenous women and girls to connect with ancestral knowingness, healing strengths, and lifeways for the wellbeing of all.

Tewa Women United is a tax-exempt organization under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code (EIN 85-0480836). Your donation is tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law.

Gifts of Stock 

Donating stocks allows you to avoid the capital gains tax and if you itemize deductions, you can also take a charitable deduction for the entire donation amount. We’ve invested in this secure online tool that enables you to donate your appreciated assets in 10 minutes. Learn more and get started. A gift of appreciated stocks or mutual funds may be a tax-advantaged way for you to make a significant contribution to Tewa Women United’s work.

Give From Your IRA

If you are 70.5 or older and have a traditional IRA, you can use this secure online tool to make a donation from your IRA account. IRA gifts are generally not recognized as taxable income and if you must take a Required Minimum Distribution (RMD) this year, giving from your IRA is a compassionate way to fulfill it. Using this online tool, you can learn more and fill out the forms from your IRA custodian in just a few minutes, or print out the forms to fill them out offline.

Corporate Matching Gifts

Ask your employer about corporate matching gifts to charitable organizations. It’s an easy way to double or even triple the impact of your personal contribution to Tewa Women United.

How to Make a Matching Gift Through Your Employer

1. Consult your human resources department to find out whether your company has a matching gift program.
2. If it does, your employer can provide you with a form to fill out and send to us with your donation. Some companies have on-line options as well.
3. We will verify your gift and return the form to your company, which will then issue a matching gift contribution directly to Tewa Women United. It’s that easy.
