Ways to Give

We fight in court to defend the American West on behalf of our clients free of charge, but we can’t do it without your support! Your entire donation to the Western Environmental Law Center is tax-deductible as a charitable contribution as allowed by law. WELC’s Federal Tax ID Number is 93-1010269. We value our donors’ privacy. This is our pledge to you: WELC does not sell, rent, or trade the addresses or contact information of our donors. Please help protect the West by making an online contribution to WELC today or by contributing through one of the giving options below.

Other Ways to Give:
Please contact David Lawlor, Director of Development at (541) 255-0209 or to make the following gifts or to learn more.

  • Legacy Giving

    By naming Western Environmental Law Center in your will, trust, or other estate plans, you’ll make a lasting contribution to the protection of the West.

  • Gifts of Securities, Stocks, Bonds, or Mutual Funds
  • Charitable Gift Annuities

    Our Charitable Gift Annuity program operates in partnership with the Oregon Community Foundation. Payments are made to beneficiaries during the lifetime of the donor and the remainder is added to our endowment fund.

  • Workplace Giving

    Many employers match their employees’ donations to nonprofit organizations or have programs to allow pre-tax contributions to charities. You can also select WELC to receive contributions through payroll deduction for United Way campaigns. Please ask your employer or check with us to see if your company participates in these programs.

  • Donate Your Vehicle
    We’ve teamed up with Donate For Charity to make donating your vehicle to us easy. Whether the vehicle is running or not, Donate For Charity can help process the donation. They will arrange for your car to be picked up and handle all the issues associated with donating your car. You’ll get a minimum $500 tax deduction (or higher, depending on what your car sells for) and we receive the net proceeds. You can sign up or learn more here.

We acknowledge the generosity of our donors by listing donor names in our annual reports. If you prefer to make an anonymous gift, just let us know. If you have any questions about donating to WELC or the impact of your gift, please contact:
