Donate With Ease!

We have included a DonateNow button feature to our website in order to simplify the donation process. With this button, visitors to our website may donate instantly! This tool offers both a safe and easy option for supporters to contribute to our work.

The DonateNow feature is made possible through Groundspring.org, a nonprofit Internet foundation created by the Tides Foundation. All donations are processed by Groundspring.org, utilizing the newest secure technology developed for e-commerce to ensure that a donor's information is kept private and secure.
