Donation Policy
At Patriot Relief, we are committed to ensuring transparency, accountability, and the responsible use of all donations. Your support empowers us to provide essential services and resources to those in need. Below is our detailed donation policy:
1. Use of Donations
Purpose: All donations are used to fund Patriot Relief programs, services, and operational needs that align with our mission to support Americans in time of disaster.
Restricted Donations: If a donor designates a specific purpose for their donation, we will honor that intent. Unrestricted donations will be applied to the areas of greatest need.
2. Methods of Donation
Donations can be made via the following methods:
Online through our secure website
By mail (check or money order)
In-person at Patriot Relief events
We also accept non-monetary donations such as goods (i.e. campers and vehicles) and services. Contact us directly for guidance on these contributions.
3. Tax Deductibility
Patriot Relief is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. Donations are tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law.
Donors will receive a receipt for their contributions, which can be used for tax purposes.
4. Privacy and Security
We value donor privacy. Personal information collected during the donation process will be kept secure and will not be shared, sold, or traded with third parties.
Online transactions are processed through encrypted, secure platforms.
5. Refund Policy
Donations are generally non-refundable. However, if an error occurs during the donation process (e.g., duplicate charges), we encourage donors to contact us within 30 days, and we will address the issue promptly.
6. Transparency and Accountability
Financial information, including annual reports and IRS filings, is available upon request or through our website.
We are committed to allocating the majority of donations to direct program expenses, minimizing administrative and fundraising costs.
7. Acknowledgment of Donations
Donors will receive a written acknowledgment for every donation, regardless of the amount.
Donors who wish to remain anonymous can indicate their preference during the donation process.
8. Corporate Matching Gifts and Sponsorships
We encourage donors to explore corporate matching gift programs to maximize the impact of their contributions.
