Additional ways of giving

Give Monthly and Join Friends of the Bee Trees

When you give monthly, you become part of the sustaining rhythm of our work – like the steady hum of bees in spring. Your ongoing support allows us to plan ahead, deepen our fieldwork, and respond to emerging opportunities with confidence.

Even small monthly gifts add up to lasting impact. By committing to a recurring donation, you’re helping us build the kind of long-term ecological relationships that are at the heart of our mission. *Please indicate “monthly” when submitting your donation above.

Donor Advised Fund

You can make a gift via your Donor Advised Fund, remitting payment to:

Apis Arborea, 686 Snow Road, Sebastopol, CA 95472

Please feel free to note any designation for your gift.

Give Appreciated Stock

Donating appreciated stock can be a powerful way to give. If you have long-term appreciated securities (purchased over a year ago and now worth more than their original cost), you can donate them directly to Apis Arborea and potentially avoid capital gains taxes while taking a tax deduction for the full fair market value—up to 30% of your adjusted gross income.

Gift Stock

Make a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD)

If you’re age 70½ or older, one option to consider is making a gift directly to Apis Arborea from your IRA as a Qualified Charitable Distribution. A QCD counts toward your required minimum distribution, may reduce your taxable income, and offers a tax-smart way to support any cause you care about.

Simply let us know your intention, and then ask your IRA custodian to direct your gift to:

Our legal name: Apis Arborea
This address: 686 Snow Road, Sebastopol, CA 95472
Our Federal Tax ID Number: 86-1689144

Planned Giving

Leave a legacy rooted in regeneration and reciprocity. By including Apis Arborea in your estate plans, you help ensure that wild honey bees – and the biodiverse ecosystems they support – are protected for generations to come.

Whether you are leaving Apis Arborea in your estate plan or are naming Apis Arborea as a life insurance beneficiary, legacy gifts are a sophisticated and long lasting gift option.

We encourage you to seek professional advice for all questions pertaining to your legacy giving endeavors.
