Ways to Give

Our programs foster understanding that climate change is happening—here and now, in our own hometowns. With your support, we are scaling our work to reach more Americans, more often, with vital messages about how climate change is already affecting us all.

Make an IRA contribution

Annual withdrawals from traditional retirement accounts are required after age 70½ and the penalty for skipping a required minimum distribution is significant. By donating money from your IRA directly to Climate Central you can avoid income tax on required withdrawals. Please contact Regie Roth, Development Operations Manager, for more information: rroth@climatecentral.org

Make a stock gift

Donating appreciated stock or other assets can offer significant tax advantages. Please contact Regie Roth, Development Operations Manager, for more information: rroth@climatecentral.org

Make a matching gift

Double or triple your donation to Climate Central with a matching gift through your employer. After making your donation to Climate Central, you may have your gift doubled—or even tripled—just by submitting a matching gifts form to your company. Once the form is submitted and Climate Central has verified receipt of your gift, your employer will disperse the matching funds.

Click here and enter your employer's name to find out your donation is eligible for a matching donation.

Make a planned gift

Two popular ways to give are through a will or living trust. Please contact us for sample language. You can also support Climate Central by naming us as a beneficiary on a life insurance policy, retirement plan, or commercial annuity. Your planned gift may have important estate tax benefits and attractive income benefits for you or your heirs, all while establishing a lasting personal legacy. Please contact Jessica Cashdan, Vice President for Development, for more information: jcashdan@climatecentral.org
