Celebrate Mother’s Day
Mothers inspire us every day. They teach us courage and persistence, and they show us how to work with others to help our communities thrive. This Mother’s Day, consider making a gift to the League of Women Voters NYC in honor of the women who shape your life, and your mother’s life.
Generations of women have fought for our democracy – from those who demanded the right to vote, to the women who are still fighting for our rights, today.
Your donation supports our work to engage New Yorkers to know their rights. Together, we’ll create a city where every voice is heard.
How It Works

Sample Tribute
“Mom, thank you for all you do to help Bronx communities get out and vote! Love, Melinda”

IRA QUALIFIED CHARITABLE DISTRIBUTIONS
Make a difference today. If you are 70 ½, you can make a qualified charitable distribution (QCD) directly from your taxable IRA account to a tax-exempt charity like the League. If you are 73 or older consider transferring all or part of your required minimum distribution directly from your IRA to a qualified charity like the League. That amount may be tax exempt.

DONOR ADVISED FUNDS (DAF)
A Donor-Advised Fund (DAF) is like a charitable savings account: you contribute money or assets to it, receive an immediate tax deduction, and then recommend grants to your favorite charities over time. It helps simplify giving, support your favorite causes and often grows your charitable dollars tax-free before distribution.
You may be able to make a grant recommendation today using our Federal EIN #13-3100525.
