Donate
Since 2004, API Equality has been a leading API voice for marriage equality in the country. With financial support from community members like you, we will be able to continue our vital work to champion equality. Because API Equality is a project of CAA, a tax exempt 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that has fought for API civil and political rights for nearly 40 years, all contributions are tax-deductible to the extent allowed under the law.
Give Online
Please make a credit card gift by filling out our secure online form. These contributions are regarded as cash gifts. API Equality receives 100% of all VISA/MC credit card gifts made online. Credit card transactions are processed by Local Independent Charities and LIC ORG will appear on credit card statements.To make your donation online, please click here.
Cash Gift
A gift of cash is the most common form of charitable gift. Checks should be made payable to CAA (please note "API Equality" in the memo section) and sent to 17 Walter U. Lum Place, San Francisco, CA 94108. Our main office is in San Francisco's Chinatown and gifts can be dropped off as well.
Matching Gifts
Matching gifts are extremely important because they enable donors to double or even triple their contributions. Many businesses and corporations will match gifts made by their employees. If you, your spouse, or partner work for a company with a Matching Gifts Program, please obtain a matching gift form from your company's Human Resources or Personnel Department, complete the necessary information, and enclose it with your donation. We will certify the receipt of your gift, and return the form to your company. The total value of your matching gift will be recognized.
Securities and Real Estate
Gifts of common stocks, bonds, mutual funds or other appreciated securities provide an income tax deduction (equal to the fair market value at the date of transfer) and, in most cases, eliminate capital gains taxes.
In-Kind Gifts
Financial donations are the best way to support API Equality but we are also in need of many office and technology items to help us effectively. API Equality is grateful for any in-kind tech donations that are no more than 2 years old. Our wish list includes:
-Color Laserjet printer suitable for a small office network
-Digital Camera
-17" or more flatpanel LCD Monitors
