What does the WM Charitable Contributions program provide?
Summary
We support 501(c)(3) or public organizations who exclusively use donations for public purposes. We typically do not financially support operating costs, capital campaigns, individuals or foundations.
The WM Charitable Contributions program provides support to organizations that are duly certified by the state in which they operate and are in receipt of an IRS ruling that they are classified as a 501(c)(3) organization or public organizations where any donations requested will be used exclusively for public purposes.
We target our support to specific projects or programs that enhance the scope of services offered by an organization. WM prefers not to financially support operating costs, capital campaigns, or multi-year requests. Preference is also given to organizations, which have a broad base of funders, community partners and volunteers.
