Ways of Giving
Every victory in the Greenpeace movement’s more than half-century history is thanks to the passion, hard work, and, yes, financial support of people just like you.
From elementary school students making their first charitable donation to individuals wanting to leave a legacy for the planet in their estate plans, Greenpeace offers a variety of ways for you to contribute to the creation of a green, just, and peaceful future.
Contribute
Greenpeace USA is an independent campaigning organization that uses peaceful protest, creative communication, public advocacy, and lobbying to expose global environmental problems and promote solutions that are essential to a green, just, and peaceful future.
Monthly giving
By establishing a monthly gift, Greenpeace supporters increase their impact by providing Greenpeace campaigns with a dependable source of funding. Monthly giving also provides you, as a donor, with a means of transforming even a small monthly donation into a long-term and sustainable commitment that can grow over time.
Greenpeace USA is registered with the Internal Revenue Service as a 501(c)(4) entity. Contributions to Greenpeace, Inc. are not tax deductible.
Other ways to give
For donors interested in tax-advantaged charitable giving, we want you to know Greenpeace USA is affiliated with Greenpeace Fund, a 501(c)(3) charitable entity registered with the Internal Revenue Service, and contributions to Greenpeace Fund are tax-deductible. Greenpeace Fund offers additional ways of giving, including:
- Donor Advised Funds (DAFs): DAFs empower donors with the ability to contribute today, while laying the foundation for contributions that will transform tomorrow. Creating a DAF allows you to receive an immediate tax deduction, and then recommend charitable contributions from the fund over time to your favorite charities.
- Stocks/IRAs: Your gift of stock or a contribution from your IRA (including a qualified charitable distribution) will strengthen efforts to protect our planet while providing potential tax benefits for your own well-being.
To learn more about these and other ways to give to Greenpeace Fund, go to Greenpeace Fund’s website.
Why your support matters
To maintain our full independence as an environmental campaigning organization, Greenpeace USA and Greenpeace Fund do not accept gifts or matching gifts from corporate entities or governmental agencies. This policy is intended to allow our advocacy, education, and research projects to operate free from outside influence or suspicion of financial pressure.
