Donations

The League of Women Voters is a nationwide, nonpartisan grassroots organization of women and men who believe that through informed action, people can make profound changes in their communities. Our dedicated members work every day to provide voter services, educate the public, and advocate for issues that matter. Your generous donation will go directly to our work of empowering voters and defending democracy by educating the public about and advocating for issues that matter.

The League of Women Voters encourages civic engagement through voter outreach to Pike County residents and those nearby who have no local League of their own. Our members pay dues and perform their tasks as unpaid volunteers. If you find the information on this website and in our newsletter useful, please consider a contribution to help us continue our operations.Contributions to this fund are not currently tax deductible . . . BUT WE ARE WORKING ON THAT!

The League of Women Voters has announced its first annual scholarship. The League will award one $300 scholarship to a student beginning college in the 2023-2024 academic year. The awardee must be a high school senior, a resident of Pike County, and accepted to and plan to attend an accredited college or university. The recipient will be chosen based on community involvement, goals, need and grades. The scholarship was funded in 2022 to honor retiring president and original founder, Elizabeth Forrest, after seven years of service. Donations for future scholarship recipients are also encouraged and being accepted at this time.
