For a donation eligible for tax-deductions, please designate your donation to "Californians Against Waste Foundation."
Our efforts to promote strong environmental legislation are met with fierce opposition from corporations that significantly outspend us year after year. But with your support, we can continue conducting research, organizing support, and crafting legislation needed to protect California's environment.

We are available to take your call Monday-Friday from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Pacific Standard Time. If you would like to call outside of these hours, feel free to leave a message with your phone number and an appropriate time for us to call you back.

Donate directly from your IRA
A qualified charitable distribution (QCD) allows individuals who are 70½ years old or older to donate up to $108,000 to a qualifying charity directly from a traditional IRA. This is an attractive option for people who need to take a required minimum distribution (RMD) but don’t need the income or want a potential tax hit. Learn More
Donate through Your Work
We proudly partner with EarthShare & accept other workplace giving campaigns.
Donor Advised Funds
A donor advised fund, which is like a charitable savings account, gives you the flexibility to recommend how much and how often money is granted to CAW Foundation. You can recommend a grant or recurring grants now to make an immediate impact or use your fund as a tool for future charitable gifts.
Gifts of Stock
Gifts of stock are an easy way to make a lasting contribution to CAWF while realizing significant tax benefits. We do not provide or offer legal or tax advice, please contact a qualified financial or legal advisor to understand the full tax and timing implications of your donation. CAWF sells donated stocks tax-free, using 100% of your gift to support our waste reduction work.
