Giving Through Donor Advised Funds (DAFs)

A grant from your donor advised fund (DAF) can help sustain the movement for gender, racial, and economic justice for the long-term. You can recommend a grant from your DAF through your fund administrator, set up recurring grants from your DAF, or name The New York Women’s Foundation as the beneficiary of your DAF.

There are many incentives and benefits to donating appreciated stock or mutual funds to maximize your philanthropic impact. To donate stock, email us at [email protected] and let us know how many shares of the stock that you will be donating.

Donate Crypto

Donations given through cryptocurrency are tax-deductible and another way to maximize your impact. To donate crypto, visit Crypto Charity here and add “New York Women’s Foundation” as the nonprofit you want to support.

Please let us know when you’ve donated so we can appropriately credit and acknowledge your gift.
Make a Legacy Gift

A legacy gift is a lasting investment that can provide important beneﬁts to you and The New York Women’s Foundation. Making a legacy commitment is a way to ensure the growth and stability of The Foundation long-term and is a wonderful tribute to how much our mission means to you.
