Here are the most frequently asked questions:
Are my donations tax deductible?
Yes. Darkness2Hope is a 501(c)3 tax-exempt organization and your donation is tax-deductible within the guidelines of U.S. law. Please consult a tax advisor for specific deductibility rules.
How are my funds invested?
We are grateful for your generosity and promise to use your donation in the most effective way possible. All donations designated for specific funds will be applied to those projects and to administering the donations. At least 80 percent of your designated gift will go to programs that defend kids. Gifts that cannot be used for a particular project, due to over or under-funding, will be directed to Darkness2Hope’s most urgent needs. Contributions are solicited with the understanding that Darkness2Hope has control over the use of all donated funds.
How do I know you are investing my gifts wisely?
It is a humbling responsibility to know that exploited children, women and men are depending upon us , so every dollar counts. With this in mind, we work diligently to follow standards of responsible stewardship and are recognized by the BBB for our commitment to transparency, accountability and financial integrity. Every year an independent accounting firm conducts an audit of our financial records. In addition, an all-volunteer board of directors monitors expenditures and investments and sets policies, procedures, and budget.
