WAys to Give

There are many ways to support The Pangea Network’s mission of empowering women and youth.

Whether you give through our donation page today, or through a donor-advised fund, legacy gift, or other meaningful contribution, your generosity helps create lasting impact and opportunity across generations.

Give through a donor-advised fund

A Donor-Advised Fund (DAF) allows you to make a charitable contribution to a sponsoring organization, such as your financial institution, receive an immediate tax deduction, and then recommend grants to support causes you care about, including The Pangea Network.

If you have a donor-advised fund (DAF), you can recommend a grant to The Pangea Network. It’s a flexible, tax-efficient way to support our programs.

  • Getting started is easy: reach out to your DAF sponsor and ask them to make a grant to The Pangea Network (EIN: 56-2543962) designated to “General Support” (or specify the program of your choice: KWN, YWLC, etc.).

Leave a gift in your will or estate plan

By including The Pangea Network in your will, trust, or through a beneficiary designation, you ensure that your values live on. Whether large or small, these future-gifts have real impact and creating or updating your estate documents may cost you nothing today.

  • Already included us in your plan? Let us know so we can thank you and ensure your wishes are honored.

Use your IRA to make a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD)

If you’re age 70½ or older and own a traditional IRA, you may be eligible to direct up to $100,000 per year (for 2025 this may vary) from your IRA directly to The Pangea Network without including those funds in your taxable income. These Qualified Charitable Distributions (QCDs) can help satisfy your Required Minimum Distribution (RMD) and maximize your impact.

  • Ask your IRA custodian about making a direct charitable transfer to The Pangea Network (EIN 56-2543962).

  • Because the gift is not counted as taxable income, it may reduce your overall tax burden (though you should check with your tax advisor).
