“Our respect and admiration for the work performed by CORE cannot be understated. There is no more noble mission than to save lives and serve those who are in need.”
Ways to Give
CORE (Community Organized Relief Effort) is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. Your contribution may be tax-deductible to the extent permitted by law. Our Federal Tax Identification Number (EIN) is 27-1703237. We recommend consulting your tax advisor or financial professional for details about the tax benefits of your gift.
Pledge pays the card fees for donations of $1,000 USD or less, so 100% of your gift goes to the charity. If you would like, please leave Pledge a tip, so they can continue providing free fundraising to charities everywhere.
Send your gift by mail to our HQ in Los Angeles:
CORE (Community Organized Relief Effort)
910 N Hill St, Los Angeles, CA 90012

WIRE
Gifts by wire transfer can be made by contacting a member of our Development Department at [email protected] or via Pledge through our donation module online.
CRYPTO
We now accept donations of Ethereum, Bitcoin, other cryptocurrencies! This gives us one more way to fund our work and can provide you with extra tax benefits.
IRA
If you are 70.5 or older, consider a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD), a direct transfer of money from your IRA provider to make a gift to CORE. Giving from your IRA can help reduce your taxable income — and for those over 73 who must take a Required Minimum Distribution (RMD), an IRA gift is a simple way to fulfill it! By using the link below to give from your IRA, you can auto-complete your paperwork and we can track your gift to send you the proper tax receipts.
STOCKS & SECURITY
Donating stocks allows you to avoid capital gains tax and often take a charitable deduction for the full value of the asset. Use the link below to donate stock so we can track your gift, send you the correct receipt, and you can get the tax savings you deserve.
If you would prefer to make your donation through your broker, access our transfer information from the link below to notify CORE of your gift.
DONOR-ADVISER FUNDS
Donor-Advised Funds (DAFs) are investment accounts for the sole purpose of supporting charitable organizations today. The secure DAF link below:
– Automatically links with your DAF
– Allows you to recommend how you’d like your gift to be used
– Notifies CORE of your intentions
Using the link below to grant from your DAF also saves us a lot of time, so thank you! It’s a great way to ensure consistent financial support while saving cash for immediate needs
FreeWill is currently building a microsite for CORE and will email us a link to review and make updates. This site will be accessible through our Ways to Give Page.
