Why Donate
While Oasis receives partial funding from government, community, and corporate partners, we rely heavily on individual donors to make up a significant portion of our budget each year. This funding is essential to ensure we can continue to offer our programming to girls while meeting their ongoing needs and helping them grow!
Ways to Give
The number one way you can support Oasis is through your donations. We encourage donating online but also accept checks (click here for details). A great way to increase the impact of your donation is through corporate matching. We encourage you to check here or with your HR department to see if they offer this program. Oasis for Girls is a registered 501c(3) (under our fiscal sponsor the Tides Center) and qualifies for most matching programs. Our tax ID number is 94-3213100.
You or your company can also support Oasis through sponsorship. Each year Oasis runs large events that bring together our community of fearless female leaders. We have multiple sponsorship levels and opportunities, including Career Week which is a speed networking event with our girls and women in diverse professions and Shine, our annual gala.
Another great way to support Oasis is to share the work we do with your community. As the saying goes - it takes a village. Companies and individuals have organized their own events like walk-a-thons and house parties with funds raised going to Oasis. We are happy to speak to your group and share more about what we do. Remember to follow us on social media (links at the bottom of this page).
