Ways to Give

The West Des Moines Community Enrichment Foundation works with individuals, families, business and organizations to meet their charitable giving goals. We offer a wide range of giving options that can be used to establish or add to a charitable fund.  Establishing your own named fund does not require great wealth and, it is not complicated either.  By working with the West Des Moines Community Enrichment Foundation, you can provide ongoing support to charitable organizations during your lifetime or as a lasting legacy - or both!

Our community benefits from both large and small gifts given through the West Des Moines Community Enrichment Foundation.  Becoming a donor to the West Des Moines Community Enrichment Foundation is an easy way to help support the community you have lived in, loved, or raised your family.  There are many options and we invite you to find the option that works best for you.  Please feel free to contact us with any questions you may have.
