OPISAC welcomes those who wish to offer their financial support. Financial support helps OPISAC continue building sustainable development programs. These programs help people in areas where resources remain limited.
Donations may also support clean energy, clean water, food security, and community resilience. Unlike many Not-For-Profits, with OPISAC, your donations are used solely for those reasons or programs that you elect to support.
Financial support allows OPISAC to continue serving these communities. However, it is important that each person understands how the process works before offering a donation.
Initial Contact and Communication
If someone would like to support OPISAC financially, they should contact OPISAC directly. They may send an email or reach out using one of the WhatsApp connections listed on this page.
This contact helps establish direct communication with the OPISAC team. After that, the donor may determine how they would like their money to be used.
Each donor may choose the program or activity they want to support.
Some may want to support clean energy systems. Others may wish to help with food forests or clean water programs. Some donors may want to help with education or health-related projects. By discussing their interests directly, the donor and OPISAC can ensure that the donation matches the purpose.
Legal Requirements and Restrictions
OPISAC operates programs in different countries. Each country has different laws. These rules apply to all donations, whether the money comes from inside or outside the country. Some countries allow more flexibility. Others have firm limits about how to spend the money.
OPISAC studies the laws in each country. OPISAC also works with each donor. This allows both sides to agree about how to spend the money. The goal is to follow the law and also honor the donor’s wishes.
If the law does not allow the use of the money as the donor wants, OPISAC will give that information to the donor. The donor can then choose another use for the money or decide not to send the donation.
Tax Deduction in the United States
At this time, OPISAC can only offer tax deductions for donations made within the United States.
This means that if a person lives outside the United States and donates to OPISAC, they cannot claim a tax deduction unless they are filing tax returns in the USA with the Internal Revenue Service or IRS. The rules for tax deductions are created by the governments in each country and at this time, such deductions remain available only in the USA.
For donors in the United States who want a tax deduction, OPISAC will provide the proper documentation. The donor may use this documentation when reporting taxes to the relevant tax authorities.
Voluntary Support and Appreciation
OPISAC does not expect anyone to give money.
Donations are never required.
No one should feel any pressure.
However, if someone chooses to donate, that support is always greatly appreciated.
Donations help OPISAC build better programs. Each donation helps the team reach more people. The donation supports the creation of new opportunities for establishing systemically sustainable solutions.
Therefore, OPISAC welcomes any financial support.
At the same time, OPISAC values honesty, consent, and transparency.
Anyone who wants to help should contact OPISAC directly, share their intentions, and receive full information before giving any money. OPISAC remains grateful for every act of support.
