Your financial support makes parks and programs accessible to everyone.
Here are some of the ways you can support Sonoma County Regional Parks:
Monthly Giving
Park Pals is our monthly giving club. A monthly tax-deductible gift is a uniquely helpful way to provide funds we can rely on, and is is much appreciated! Park Pals receive special invitations to Park Insider Events, such as new park previews, private guided hikes and more. To set up a pledge, please complete this online form or email Executive Director Melissa Kelley or call her at 707-565-1830 to create a pledge using checks or your donor advised fund.
Corporate Matching
Many companies match donations their employees make to charities and some match gifts made by retirees. If your company is eligible, request a matching gift form from your employer, and send it completed and signed with your gift. The impact of your gift to the parks may be doubled!
IRA Charitable Rollovers (or Qualified Charitable Distributions)
Are you 70 ½ or older? You can transfer your required minimum distribution directly to Sonoma County Regional Parks Foundation, tax-free. Funds must be transferred directly from the IRA by the IRA trustee in order to qualify for the tax break. Please ask your financial advisor for details.
Commemorative Gifts
The Parks Foundation offers opportunities for tribute and memorial gifts, including furniture in parks, contributions to a tree fund, plaques and mosaics. For details, please read on...
Gifts of Appreciated Stock
Appreciated shares of stocks are an excellent gift option. To make a stock donation, please follow these steps.
Legacy Gifts
Legacy gifts to the Sonoma County Regional Parks Foundation provide a critical source of funds to help ensure that our parks continue to provide recreational, cultural, and outdoor education opportunities for the people of Sonoma County. Find out more.
