Santa Fe Donations™ is Giving. Evolved.

There's 162 benefit events* in town, and 928 charitable organizations** continuously seeking donations.
Have business donors reached the tipping point?
Now there's a solution that brings value back to donors and more donations to nonprofit organizations.

"If you don't change, you become extinct."
Who Moved My Cheese?, Dr. Spencer Johnson

This donation service is a very new concept dedicated solely to helping businesses give and nonprofit organizations receive (and display) gift certicate donations for fundraising at silent auctions or raffles. Gift certificates are donated at no cost to the nonprofit organization, each offer is determined by the participating business donor. The objective? A win-win solution to help everyone conquer this recession, which has taught us that there's no such thing as business as usual anymore. Businesses are supporting nonprofits and nonprofits are supporting business in a much bigger way. Makes sense?

"Once again, Santa Fe Donations did a wonderful thing for the Santa Fe Women’s Ensemble and we are so grateful. Not only are we grateful for the donations, but I’m sure our “winning bidders” will enjoy using their certificates at these fabulous and generous Santa Fe establishments. We hope that our supporters also become fervent supporters of the donor establishments.

We will of course separately thank the donors for their generosity, but I wanted to let you know how much we appreciate your help, and how fantastic we think it is that you coordinate donations for artistic and other non-for-profit groups in our community.

All best for the new year!"

Mary S. Mittnacht
Vice President, Development (and singing member of the Ensemble), Jan. 19, 2010

"Words cannot express our gratitude for you and SantaFeDonations.com. Thank you so much for the service you provide to our community and to its nonprofit organizations. The cornucopia of gift certificates provided by your organization and participating merchants were a wonderful and most welcome addition to our raffle as part of our first annual fundraiser on October 24th, the Bad Taste Costume Ball.

Our guests were delighted both with the event, held at the Legal Tender in Lamy, and with our selection of prizes and gift certificates from highly desired local establishments. These donations from you and your merchants helped us to meet our fundraising goals, which will help us with our operating expenses in what has been a challenging economic year for us and for other small nonprofits throughout New Mexico.

We thank you again for the gift certificates, for your contribution to the Santa Fe community, and for your support of Museum Development Associates."
