Local organizations will need help and money too. I suggest looking up your local women’s shelter, organizations that help those coming out of prison, or those that help the homeless.
Great idea, Laura, thanks!
This is a good point. Another angle is your local social justice oriented churches and faith communities.
What about Black Lives Matter and the League of Women Voters?
Great. Here is the link for BLM: http://blacklivesmatter.com/
Here is the link for LWV: http://lwv.org/
The Mazzoni Center in Philadelphia – a critical lgbtq health and resources center offering everything from legal help to a food bank to healthcare.

Breast Cancer Action – a grassroots organization working to achieve health justice for all the women living with or at risk of breast cancer. Here is their ED’s statement following the election of Donald Trump http://www.bcaction.org/2016/11/09/what-a-trump-presidency-means-to-us/
Thanks for adding to the list, Grazia! It’s mind boggling how many angles we have to think about with the Trump presidency.
Emily’s List is a good one as well – they work to fund female candidates, particularly those who support repro rights:)

Most of my favorites are here, but what about the Trevor Project? http://www.thetrevorproject.org
I boosted my contribution to the Xerces Society, to protect pollinators and other invertebrates.

Also my local environmental justice group that focuses on racial and economic disparities ( http://www.opalpdx.org/ here in Portland).
The Doula Project–advocates for pregnancy support, and perhaps more importantly in light of what we might face soon, they advocate and support the use of doula’s during abortions. http://www.doulaproject.org/p/about-us.html
See if you have a refugee center in your town that works with new immigrants. Even in Greeley, Colorado we have a Global Refugee Center: http://www.grccolorado.org/
