Visit the Sanctuary Store for T-Shirts, Hats and Other Items

Please allow up to 8 weeks for your order to arrive. So plan ahead for birthday and Christmas gifts. Because there are so many different items, colors, and sizes it is not practical to have them in stock. When you order a t-shirt for example, Elaine has to order the blank t-shirt then silk screen the Ironwood name and logo and then ship to you. Depending on how many orders we receive Elaine might wait up to a month to group orders before ordering the blank items in order to be more efficient. Elaine volunteers her time which we appreciate very much so our costs are low.

2019 Ironwood calendars are available! They are $20, which includes shipping, and can be purchased by using the "Donate" button above. Please make sure to include a shipping address and in the "Add special instructions to the seller" section please note that you would like to purchase a calendar. You can also send a check (made out to Ironwood Pig Sanctuary) to: Ironwood Pig Sanctuary, P.O. Box 35490, Tucson, AZ 85740. If you would like to purchase over the phone using a credit card please call 520-631-0894.

Order early, they sell out every year!

Remember the Ironwood Pig Sanctuary In Your Will

Bequest

Creating a will is an essential part of securing your legacy and your family’s future. Without a will or trust, state laws will determine how your estate is distributed and your wishes may not be fulfilled as you intend. By thoughtfully constructing an estate plan, you can ensure that your family and your legacy are protected as you desire.

A gift by will, also known as a bequest, is an easy and flexible way to make a meaningful contribution to the Ironwood Pig Sanctuary. Let your legacy reflect your heart. If your heart is in the animal rescue and care work of the Ironwood Pig Sanctuary, a bequest will ensure that future generations of needy pigs will receive vital support. Thank you for considering the Ironwood Pig Sanctuary in your estate plans.

The Mary C Schanz Foundation is doing business as (dba) Ironwood Pig Sanctuary. For your Will it is recommended that you use both names (although it is okay if you’ve already used only the Ironwood Pig Sanctuary name), the post office address from the back cover and this tax identification number for the Foundation: 86-0999483. Your support makes it possible for us to give a loving home to the almost 600 Pot-Bellied Pigs in our care and is very much appreciated.

Donate With Your Company’s Matching Gift Program

Double or Triple Your Gift

You can easily make your donation to the Ironwood Pig Sanctuary go even further if you work for a matching gift company. Many employers will double and sometimes triple their employees’ or retirees’ charitable contributions. For example AIG will double the amount of your donation as a matching gift.

Simply request a matching gift form from your employer, fill it out and mail it to the address below. Your gift, with your employers match will go further toward taking care of the 600 pot-bellied pigs at the Ironwood Pig Sanctuary.

We have a sponsor who chose to pay her $30 a month sponsor donation this year with a $360 check for the entire year. She included a matching gift form from her employer and doubled her gift to $720!!

Another supporter either works for or is retired from AIG and her donation was matched TWO for ONE resulting in triple her donation!!

Harold makes occasional $50 donations and includes a copy of his employer’s matching gift form every time to double his gift to $100!

Some of our other supporters, like Harold, copy their employer’s matching gift form and use it every time they make a donation.

Please review the following list, or check with your human resources or personnel department to see if you work for a matching gift company.

Please include your company’s matching gift form along with your donation or mention your past donation and send to the following address:

Ironwood Pig Sanctuary PO Box 35490 Tucson, AZ 85740-5490
