Ways to Support Dēmos

Your tax-deductible donation to Dēmos will help us fight rising inequality and inequity in our society

Dēmos means “the people”, and since our founding in 2000, we have been fighting to ensure that all people in this country are given an equal say in our democracy and an equal chance in our economy. However, inequality—economic, political and racial—is on the rise. It threatens the promise of America by weakening our democracy and denying millions of Americans the economic security they deserve.

Your tax-deductible donation is critical to helping Dēmos create the ideas and action needed to create a better America for future generations.

A gift to Dēmos of stocks and mutual funds can provide you with tax advantages. For instructions on donating securities, please contact Monique Richards.

We ask that you inform Dēmos of your gift. Because privacy laws discourage brokerage firms from releasing the names of clients, you’ll need to give Dēmos permission to recognize your stock donation, in order for us to credit and thank you for your generous gift.

Increase the impact of your donation with a matching gift from your employer. If your employer offers this option, please take a moment to get a matching gift form and follow the directions to initiate the match.
