Donations/Your Help
Swift Eagle is an all-volunteer organization with no overhead other than mailings and insurance, so 100% of your donations go directly to those in need in Eagle County. We raise money by hosting one or two major fundraisers each year, through grants received, and from individual contributions.

Your help is truly needed. Our applications continue to rise significantly as people struggle during these difficult times. We rely more than ever on you, our donors, trusting that you see the need to reach out to help the community of people around you. Good investments can be hard to find—we think you’ll agree there is none better than this.

Colorado Gives Website – You can make an online donation through the Colorado Gives website.

Income Tax Refund – If you’re due a state income tax refund, a new state program gives you the opportunity to use some or all of it to directly support a favorite nonprofit like Swift Eagle Charitable Foundation. The new program, promoted through the ReFUND CO awareness initiative, lets you choose where your donation goes. All you have to do is

Decide how much of your state income tax refund to donate (all or a portion of it).

Enter [Swift Eagle Charitable Foundation] and our registration number [20073009138] in the Donate to a Colorado Nonprofit Fund line on your state tax return or tax software – or just give this info to your tax preparer when you share your tax documents. It’s easy and pain free!  And consider this.  Last year, Colorado returned more than $1 billion in refunds to 1.9 million state taxpayers. Imagine the impact support of this program could have on local community causes and nonprofits. You can learn more details about the program at RefundWhatMatters.org.
