If you want to donate to or read more about each entity, simply click on a name. We’ve confirmed that any entity on this list is still taking donations at the time of publication and that those doing so less formally (like via Venmo or the Cash App) are providing receipts and/or are legitimate. In addition to sourcing entities from lists already created by our sister sites the Cut and the Verge, this guide includes other funds, organizations, and individual activists we have vetted after seeing them on social media or in resource documents being widely shared (including this one, created by Reclaim the Block this one, created by graduate students at the University of Washington’s School of Public Health this one, created by Margaret McCarron this one, created by artist Annika Hansteen-Izora this one, created by ThemsHealth, an Instagram wellness resource for the nonbinary community and this one, created by writer and activist Indigo).

It should go without saying that, while expansive, this guide is nowhere near complete and will be updated as we identify and vet new entities (or see others - like the Minnesota-based North Star Health Collective, Reclaim the Block, and Black Visions Collective - directing potential patrons elsewhere because they have all the money they need right now).
