Support What Matters Most
Your Gift Keeps Vital Services Going
Every donation helps sustain the programs neighbors rely on—free medical and children’s equipment loans, transportation guidance, affordable meeting spaces, and more.
We use Zeffy, a secure donation platform that allows the Foundation to receive 100% of your gift with no fees taken out. Zeffy is funded entirely by optional tips from donors—tipping is appreciated by Zeffy but never required.
In the Zeffy checkout, you’ll see an optional tip line. You can set it to any amount—or $0. Your full donation still goes to Sun City West Foundation—no fees will be charged by Zeffy. Click here for frequently asked questions.

100% Donation Transparency
We Use Zeffy to Keep Every Dollar Working for Our Community
Zeffy allows the Foundation to receive 100% of every donation—with no credit card or platform fees deducted. Learn how this fee-free model works and why your full gift directly supports programs that serve Sun City West.
Zeffy covers all transaction, credit-card, and platform fees so every dollar you give directly supports local programs—from Helping Hands and Find Your Ride to community room operations and events.
No. Tipping is completely optional. Many donors choose to leave a small tip to help Zeffy cover processing costs, but if you set the amount to $0, the Foundation still receives your full donation.
Zeffy’s model relies entirely on voluntary contributions from donors. On average, two out of three donors leave a tip, which covers Zeffy’s operating costs and transaction fees—keeping the platform free for more than 50,000 nonprofits.
Tips go directly to Zeffy, not to the Foundation. They allow Zeffy to maintain its no-fee platform. Your donation amount to the Foundation remains unchanged.
Yes. Zeffy automatically emails you a donation receipt immediately after your transaction for your records.
