You become a member of the 8-Ball Welfare Foundation through your annual donations. Every dollar you contribute goes directly to help members or future members of our profession through our grants.

We are a non-profit 501(c)3 private foundation as described under section 509(a) of the IRS code. The IRS lists us as: “Greater Los Angeles Press Club Eight Ball Welfare Foundation.” Since 1956, the foundation has operated independently of the Press Club.

There are now two ways you can make a donation (and become a member, receiving both a membership card and an acknowledgement letter for tax purposes).

1. BY MAIL: You can download the donation form, print it out and mail it with your check to:

8-Ball Welfare Foundation
PO Box 10186
Burbank, CA 91510-0186

2. BY PAYPAL: We are now offering the convenience of making a donation through PayPal, using either a credit or a debit card

This transaction will be between PayPal and yourself, meaning the 8-Ball Welfare Foundation will not receive your credit card or Pay Pal account details. To take advantage of this, please click on the PayPal logo below.

 

Please help us help others with a tax deductible donation. We sincerely thank you. Know that your fellow journalists in temporary financial need will deeply appreciate it.
