        How critical are your donations to WCASA?

        Your contribution allows you to play an active role in ending sexual violence, so that all people can have the freedom to live without fear of sexual violence.  Individual donations are a primary source of funding for our public policy and organizing efforts. Therefore, donations, private sector and foundation grants are critical to our work.

         

        Answers to most Frequently Asked Questions

        Can I designate my contribution to a particular area or program?
        Other areas to direct your gift: Technical assistance and Training for programs and professionals, Organizing, Public Policy and Legislative, Legal Training, and Public Awareness and Primary Prevention, Aging and Disabilities Program, and our anti--Oppression Project working with underserved populations.

        Will my name be sold to a mailing list?
        No, WCASA does not share, sell, or give away any of our donor mailing lists or phone numbers.

        How much money may I donate?
        That is completely your decision. We are broadening and expanding our programs and services to support the 43 Rape Crisis Centers across the State as well as assisting growing numbers of Community Crisis Response Teams. You may donate monthly, quarterly, semi-annually or annually.  These are great ways to stretch your donation(s) according to your economic situation.

        Is my contribution tax-deductible?
        The Wisconsin Coalition Against Sexual Assault is a 501(c) 3 charitable organization. All contributions are tax-deductible as allowed by law.

        Will my name be made public?
        That is up to you. You may choose to be anonymous.

        Will I get a donation receipt?
        All online donation transactions automatically generate an e-mail confirmation which serves as a receipt.

        How do I know that WCASA is a credible non-profit organization to donate to?
        There are several ways to learn about a non-profit organization. Every non-profit is required to submit a 990 report to the IRS. Annual reports and audits can be helpful in determining the credibility of an agency.

        You may contact the Wisconsin Attorney General’s Office who maintains information on non-profit organizations in the state and any complaints received.
