Support Earth Day Fort Collins and Help us Teach People about Environmental Preservation on a Local Level to Address the Global Climate Crisis
Your promise to the planet starts here!
The climate crisis presents real and present challenges for people and the planet. If we don’t continue to combat climate change at a local level, Colorado will see increased temperatures, reduced snowpack, limited water resources, and worsening air quality. Each of these challenges threaten our love for the outdoors and our connection to nature.
IT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE LIKE THIS.
The fight against climate change involves not only mitigating emissions but also building resilience, conserving natural resources, and fostering sustainable practices that can help safeguard the environment and our way of life.
WE HAVE BEEN TACKLING CHALLENGES LIKE THIS FOR MORE THAN TWO DECADES.
- By working collectively with people, governments, and organizations we are helping to build more resilient communities.
- We’re training youths how to advocate for policies and practices that will keep them healthy and safe in the face of climate change.
- We’re helping businesses learn how to become purpose driven and use their money to do good in the world.
- We’re sharing tools and resources on how to live more in balance with nature and helping people embrace responsibility for the future of our planet.
WE ARE FIGHTING FOR OUR FUTURE.
This work only gets done with support from people like you and we are grateful for each and every donation. Your support is more than just a donation; it's a powerful statement of your commitment to a healthier, more sustainable planet. Together, we can continue to protect this place we call home. Let’s make 2024 a year of impact and action! Thank you.
Other Ways to Give
Check
Please make checks payable to Sustainable Living Association (SLA) and mail to: PO Box 1095, Fort Collins, CO 80522
Corporate Matching Gifts
Many companies match donations made by their employees to registered nonprofit organizations. We encourage you to inquire from your company if they might be able to match your donation this year. The impact of your gift to the Sustainable Living Association could potentially be doubled and sometimes even tripled!
Securities/Stock
To make a gift of stock, please notify our Executive Director in advance of the transfer by contacting 970-213-9107 or kellie@sustainablelivingassociation.org
Donor-Advised Funds
Donor-Advised Funds (DAFs) are very effective charitable giving vehicles whereby donors set aside money to be granted to charitable organizations. You can support the Sustainable Living Association through a DAF grant. When processing a DAF grant through a charitable giving account, search for Sustainable Living Association by tax ID number 48-1302998.
Retirement Plans and IRAs
A retirement plan, such as an IRA, can be a smart source for charitable giving. If you are 70½ years or older, an IRA charitable rollover gift allows you to direct up to $100,000 tax-free to the Sustainable Living Association each year from your traditional IRA, which satisfies your required minimum distribution and reduces your taxable income. Contact your IRA custodian to request a direct distribution to the Sustainable Living Association. Married taxpayers who meet QCD requirements and file joint returns can donate $100,000 from each spouse’s IRA, for a total of $200,000 annually.
