We are a charity
Raft Foundation is a 501(c)(3) public charity, the standard type of organization people think of when they think of US nonprofits or NGOs. Public charities are tax-exempt, and donations to public charities are tax-deductible to the extent of the law. Many public and private foundations also require their grantees to be public charities, or to have a public charity fiscal sponsor.
