Charitable Donation Requests

As you can imagine The Washington Wizards are asked to support many worthwhile charitable causes and events each year. Our goal is to fulfill as many requests as possible, however due to the number of requests we receive, we simply are unable to accommodate them all with a donation. In order for your organization to be considered for a charitable donation, you must complete the online Washington Wizards Donation Request Form. You must also comply with the following guidelines:

  • Request MUST be submitted at least six (6) weeks prior to the date of your event.
  • Request may only be submitted online via our online Washington Wizards Donation Request Form.
  • Approved organizations may only receive one donation per calendar year.
  • Please do not send personal items to be autographed by Wizards players, coaches, or alumni. The Washington Wizards will not be held responsible for any lost or unreturned items.
  • The Washington Wizards are unable to donate to organizations outside of the Washington, DC Metropolitan Area (MD and VA).
  • All correspondence will be made via email, please do not call or email directly for status updates.
  • The Washington Wizards Community Relations department is unable to make monetary donations or provide sponsorships.
  • All requests are subject to approval by the Washington Wizards.

After you submit your request online, you will receive a return e-mail with a username and password so that you may check the status of your request. Please keep in mind that submitting an online request does not guarantee your organization will receive a donation.


Player Appearance Request Form

The Washington Wizards organization is committed to being involved in the community and working collaboratively with groups and organizations that desire to make a positive impact in the areas of health and fitness, hunger and homelessness, military and veteran support, education and youth basketball. An opportunity to involve the Washington Wizards with the work of other community groups is something that we value, and as a result, we will make every effort to support as many requests as possible.
