Make a gift in honor of a friend or loved one

By giving gift commemorating or memorializing a friend or loved one with a gift to the Sierra Club Foundation, you not only affirm your environmental values, but also recognize that these values were shared by the individual being honored. If you choose, we will send an acknowledgment in your name a recipient of your choosing, informing them of the gift, with the gift amount will be kept confidential. You may also include a special note if you wish.

An email will be sent to you acknowledging the gift and confirming that notice of the gift has been sent. If you provide us with the recipient's email address, an acknowledgement featuring your name will be sent to them digitally. Please note that physical acknowledgments will currently take 4 weeks to process; providing an email address will ensure quicker delivery.

Please select whether you are making a commemorative or memorial gift before filling out the recipient's information.

Thank you for your generosity, and for supporting the Sierra Club Foundation!
