Join our Nourishing Neighbors recurring giving program to ensure we always have the resources needed to nourish our neighbors in the fight against hunger. When you make a recurring donation to Feeding Westchester, you’ll immediately become a Nourishing Neighbor. It’s simple to sign up and easy to update or change billing information at any time, via our secure donor portal.

Consider making a recurring gift today — it’s what sustains Feeding Westchester’s most-needed programs.

If you have a Donor-Advised Fund (DAF), simply fill out the DAF Direct form on this page and log into your account to make your grant recommendation. A DAF gives you flexibility in how much and how often money is granted to Feeding Westchester. Gifts like these help our organization fight hunger for our neighbors in need. Feeding Westchester is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization. Our tax identification number is 13-3507988.

A donation through your DAF will help us:

  • Nourish our neighbors in the fight against hunger.
  • Provide people with access to the food they need today, and the fundamental resources to build a better tomorrow.
  • Meet the growing need for those experiencing hunger due to the pandemic.

Please contact Jeanne Fogel, Associate Vice President of Individual Giving, with any questions at jfogel@feedingwestchester.org or 914.909.9610. Don’t see your fund? Let us know.

Donating stock and mutual fund shares are wonderful ways to support Feeding Westchester. Making a gift of securities is simple and offers a number of valuable financial benefits.

  • You can donate appreciated stocks, bonds, or mutual funds.
  • The total value of the stock upon transfer is tax-deductible. 
  • There is no obligation to pay any capital gains taxes on the appreciation.

Please contact Jeanne Fogel, Associate Vice President of Individual Giving, at jfogel@feedingwestchester.org or 914.909.9610 to learn more about donating stocks today.

The IRA charitable rollover (also called the Qualified Charitable Distribution, or QCD) is a great way to make a tax-free gift to Feeding Westchester and satisfy your Required Minimum Distribution (RMD).

If you are not required to take an RMD but no longer itemize your deductions, then a QCD may be right for you as well. Learn more, here.

Please contact Jeanne Fogel, Associate Vice President of Individual Giving, at jfogel@feedingwestchester.org or 914.909.9610 to learn more about donating stocks today.

Honor someone special with a tribute gift from Feeding Westchester. Your donation will make a lasting impact on the lives of others, just as your honoree has done for you. A tribute gift is a meaningful way to celebrate a birthday, anniversary, holiday, or the memory of a loved one.
