Please provide your name, the date of the donation, the donation amount, and a brief explanation of the reason for your request. Do not send credit card, debit card, bank account, or other sensitive financial information by email.

 

All refund requests will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. Submission of a request does not guarantee that a refund will be issued.

 

Online Payment Processing

Online donations may be processed through PayPal or another authorized third-party payment processor.

 

Approved refunds will generally be returned through the original payment method whenever possible and may be subject to the processing procedures and timelines of the applicable payment provider.

 

The Foundation does not control the time required by a payment processor or financial institution to complete or post a refund.

 

Tax Receipts

If a charitable contribution is refunded after a donation acknowledgment or tax receipt has been issued, the original acknowledgment or receipt should no longer be used to claim a charitable contribution deduction for the refunded amount.

 

Donors should consult their tax advisor regarding questions about the tax treatment of charitable contributions or refunds.
