We believe it is possible to build a better world by giving people the knowledge, skills, and motivation to solve problems in ways that do the most good and least harm for humans, animals, and the environment. Your donation helps create a world where all can thrive.
A gift of $600 covers the cost of a Solutionary Micro-credential Course registration so we can continue to provide scholarships to dedicated teachers who can’t afford the program.
A gift of $300 helps us travel to educational conferences to give presentations and workshops to inspire more people to join the solutionary movement.
A gift of $75 will help us continue to produce and share free guidebooks, curricula, and training materials to help teachers become humane educators.
A gift of $25 allows us to provide a free copy of The Solutionary Way to leaders in government, business, and media as we strive to build a better world.
Your Monthly Donation
Thank you for your interest in joining and furthering our mission. There are many ways you can support our work, including sharing our resources, joining our programs, engaging with our social media platforms, attending our events, and YES, donating money. One of the most impactful things you can do to support our work is to become a recurring donor.
Here’s why monthly giving is powerful:
Sustained Impact: Your monthly donations provide us with steady funding, enabling long-term planning and sustained efforts.
Budget-Friendly: By breaking down your donation into smaller monthly amounts, you may find it possible to increase the overall annual support because it’s not coming all at one time.
Convenience: Set up your donation once and know your support is ongoing. Adjust or cancel anytime.
Your Impact
With your donation, we have been able to:
Engage millions through presentations, podcasts, workshops, TEDx talks, essays, and appearances on TV, radio, and film
Integrate solutionary learning into schools, reaching tens of thousands of students in the U.S. and worldwide.
Expand the Solutionary Framework to hundreds of schools and dozens of countries
Graduate hundreds of humane education leaders from our MEd, MA, EdD, and Graduate Certificate programs
There are Many Ways to Support IHE
Matching Gifts
Many companies will match charitable contributions made by their employees. If your company has a qualifying program, you can request a matching gift form from your employer.
Gifts in Honor
Giving in honor of a friend or family member can be a great way to recognize their dedication to human rights, animal protection, environmental sustainability, and humane education. At your request, we can send a card in your name to the individual being honored. You can also do this in memory of someone who has passed and send the card to their loved ones.
Gifts of Stock
We accept gifts of stock. This can be especially advantageous to you as a donor if held longer than one year since you avoid paying capital gains tax. You would also receive an income tax deduction for the market value of the gift.
Peer-to-Peer Fundraising
Organize an online, personal campaign to raise money on behalf of IHE. By sharing your fundraising page with your friends and family, you are helping us reach our fundraising goal while simultaneously connecting more people to the work of IHE.
Planned or Estate Giving
Planning a deferred gift to IHE is a powerful way to establish your legacy. Planned giving is not just for the wealthy or those with expertise in financial planning. It can be a simple way to leave behind a gift of any value to support the work and mission of IHE. Please contact our Executive Director, Steve Cochrane.
Recurring Gift
As previously mentioned, recurring gifts are hugely impactful, and you can do so monthly, quarterly, once per year, over a series of years, or however best meets your needs.
