We will always remain passionate about what we do: providing Alaskans with the information, education, and accessibility necessary to lead a more energy-conscious life.
The investment that you make today does not benefit us alone, but rather, Alaska as a whole. If you believe in our cause, we ask that you help us in developing a cleaner, richer, and more vibrant future for our beautiful state.
Donate nowThere are multiple ways to donate. Choose to donate one-time, donate on a recurring monthly basis, or become one of our elite energy visionaries by donating $1,000 or more.
Donors can play a significant role in securing Alaska’s clean energy future through planned giving. Individuals who have made a gift to REAP through their wills or estate planning are all considered REAP Energy Visionaries – foresighted donors whose gifts extend beyond their lifetimes. Donors interested in making a planned gift may contact REAP Operations Director Greg Stiegel at 907-929-7770 x1 or gstiegel@REalaska.org.

If you are aged 70 ½ or older it’s possible to make a tax-favored charitable gift from traditional and Roth IRA accounts. In 2015, Congress passed legislation making the charitable IRA rollover permanent. A total of up to $100,000 can be transferred directly from traditional or Roth IRAs to one of more qualified charities such as REAP free from federal income tax. Amounts given in this way count toward required IRA minimum withdrawal amounts for the year of the gift.
To make such gifts, it is important to not withdraw funds prior to a gift, but have the gift amount distributed directly from an IRA to one or more qualified charities. If you have check writing privileges on your account, this may be the most efficient way to make gifts directly from an IRA. Check with your IRA administrator or your tax adviser for more information.
Give life-changing education, training, and clean energy support that helps protect our environment. You can make a tax-deductible donation to REAP in honor or in memory of someone to show how much you care, while advancing a clean energy future for Alaska. Provide the honoree contact information if you’d like us to mail or send an e-card (see sample). If preferred, we are happy to supply you with a card to print out from home.
Please note, we will provide information for your donation to be tax deductible to the extent allowed by the IRS – please seek advice from a tax professional.
