The League of Women Voters of New Jersey Centennial Campaign is our 100th year fundraiser focused on building organizational power for the next generation of women leaders and voting rights activists.  None of us can predict the threats our democracy will face 100 years from now, but the best defense to any attempt at voter suppression is an informed and engaged electorate.

The Centennial Leadership Circle is a community of passionate supporters who are committed to defending democracy, empowering voters, and ensuring the League of Women Voters remains a strong, nonpartisan voice in New Jersey for the next 100 years. Centennial Leadership Circle gifts can be one time donations, pledged and fulfilled over multiple years, or legacy gifts given as bequests. Can we inspire you to make a significant investment with the League of Women Voters? Our Centennial Leadership Giving Levels are:

• Centennial Civic Leader: $1,000
• Equal Rights Activist: $2,500
• 19th Amendment Ambassador: $5,000
• Voting Rights Hero: $10,000
• Fair Elections Champion: $15,000
• Democracy Defender: $25,000
• Garden State Trailblazer: $50,000
• Second Century Suffragist: $100,000

Please consider making your Centennial Leadership gift (particularly gifts over $2,500) via check to ensure 100% of the funds go towards the League. Your check can be payable to either the League of Women Voters of New Jersey Education Fund (LWVNJ-EF) and be tax-deductible or the League of Women Voters of New Jersey (LWVNJ) and be non tax-deductible and mailed to 204 West State Street, Trenton, NJ 08608. If you wish to have a conversation ahead of making a Leadership Gift, please email Fatima Munshi at FMunshi@lwvnj.org.
