Acceptance of Terms

By engaging with us, you acknowledge that you’ve read, understood, and agreed to these Terms. We may update these Terms from time to time to reflect changes in our work or legal requirements. We’ll notify you of any major changes, but it’s a good idea to check back occasionally to stay informed. Continued use of our services after changes are posted means you accept them.

Foundation’s Mission

Our mission is simple: to make a difference in people’s lives through charitable programs, education, healthcare, poverty alleviation, environmental conservation, and community support. We are a non-profit organization dedicated to uplifting communities and individuals in need, with every dollar raised going directly towards these goals.

• Purpose: Your donations fuel our mission, allowing us to respond to immediate needs and plan for long-term solutions. Every contribution supports our various programs aimed at making a tangible difference in people’s lives. • Non-Refundable: Donations are final once processed. If you have questions about how your funds are being used, feel free to reach out to us; transparency is at the heart of what we do. • Acknowledgment: We may acknowledge your donation through emails, receipts, or in some cases, public recognition (unless you • choose to remain anonymous). Depending on where you live, donations may be tax-deductible; please consult a tax advisor. • Allocation of Funds: We respect your wishes on how your donation should be spent. However, if an initiative reaches full funding or if an emergency arises, we may allocate funds to where they are most urgently needed. • Right to Decline: The Foundation reserves the right to decline donations that are inconsistent with our values or mission.

• Eligibility: We welcome volunteers who meet our eligibility criteria, which may include minimum age requirements or a background check, depending on the specific activity. • Conduct: Volunteers represent the Foundation in the community, and we expect conduct that reflects our values. Mistreatment, harassment, or harmful behavior will not be tolerated and may result in termination from the volunteer program. • Compensation: Volunteering with us is unpaid, and it does not imply employment. We do our best to show appreciation through other means, but volunteers should not expect monetary compensation or benefits. • Liability: Volunteering involves inherent risks, and volunteers may need to sign a waiver acknowledging these risks and agreeing not to hold the Foundation responsible for injuries, losses, or damages incurred during their service.

We work hard to produce content that inspires, informs, and serves our community, and we ask that it’s respected. • Restrictions on Use: You’re welcome to view, share, and link to our content, but please don’t modify, sell, or reproduce it without permission. • User Content: If you share stories, feedback, photos, or other materials with us, you’re allowing us to use them to inspire others or promote our work.
