Donating online is our easiest option. You can donate using any major credit card. All international donations made on the Of Home, Family and Future website will be converted to USD. Take care when filling out billing and shipping information; PayPal has a highly sensitive automatic fraud alert system, and it picks up any inconsistencies in these subjects.
There are different options for giving online. See them here

Of Home, Family and Future is a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit, so all donations made directly to the organization are tax-deductible. Our audited financials as well as our 501(c)(3) exemption can be found online here. Our 501(c)(3) document may not be provided to any sponsors or donors on our behalf without our written consent. If you’re looking for our 990 information, please email info@ofhome.org
Receipts for online donations may take up to 24 hours to process and email to you. Be on the lookout for yours; tax receipt emails sometimes find their way into junk mail folders. If you don’t get your receipt within 12 hours, please let us know and we’ll gladly reissue you another one. Offline donors receive a formal tax receipt in the mail within four weeks after their donation has been processed. Again, if you don’t get your receipt within that time, just let us know and we’ll resend it.
If you donate to the Educational Mentoring Program, this is what your money goes towards: Computer and internet access, books and other college course-related material such as special computer programs, tutoring, transportation home, cell phone and cell phone plan, counseling.
If you want your donation to go where it is most needed at the time, don’t designate either program.
