WFSA’s Giving Collective is an innovative philanthropic movement that allows for equitable fundraising from people invested in our shared vision of an Arizona where women and girls of all identities thrive.

Our holistic fundraising approach is centered on the community to foster mutual support between donors, the community, and other nonprofit partners. We aim to shift philanthropy from transaction to transformation to create impact.

WFSA’s Philanthropy model:

WFSA adopts the philanthropic model of community-based giving provided by Community-Centric Fundraising which is: 

• Grounded in equity and social justice.
• Is rooted in partnership; We treat donors as partners and value transparency. All stakeholders, from staff to board to volunteers, are vital to the success of our mission. 
• Supports nonprofit work in our communities. There is space for us all to do the important work of addressing needs to strengthen communities. 

The Giving Collective experience includes: 

• Acknowledgments based on donor-community relationships; not dollar amounts. 
• Authentic connections with other WFSA donors, staff, and the community we support.
• Year-round communication for Giving Collective members to stay engaged in the WFSA community and advocacy work.
