Venmo
Contributions to support the work of West Village Citizens for Preservation may be made via Venmo. To help protect the privacy of volunteers collecting contributions, the Venmo handle is not posted publicly. Please use the email button to request payment instructions and include the amount you intend to contribute in your message so we can keep accurate records. Contributions are currently being collected through several private Venmo accounts on behalf of the association and will be used solely to support community-funded zoning and legal analysis related to the Hudson–Christopher–Barrow–Greenwich block.
When submitting a payment, please include the memo “Community Project” so the contribution can be properly recorded. For additional privacy, contributors may wish to set their Venmo transaction to private. Donor names are kept confidential and will not be publicly disclosed without a contributor’s consent. Please note that contributions are voluntary and are not tax-deductible.
