Ensuring Responsible Giving
Accepting donations is a significant responsibility that we take seriously at the Fair Future Foundation (Fair Future). We adhere to specific principles governing how we receive and utilize contributions to ensure they align with our mission and legal obligations. Below are guidelines for potential donors to consider:
- Purposeful Acceptance: Fair Future is committed to accepting donations that align with our mission and statutory requirements. To ensure transparency, we encourage donors to review our statutes and mission statement, which are readily available on our website.
- Financial Security: We prioritize the financial security of both the donor and our foundation. Donations that could potentially jeopardize the financial stability of the donor will not be accepted. Our goal is to foster sustainable support without imposing additional financial burdens.
- Tax Considerations: While Fair Future does not provide tax advice, it is important to note that Swiss law recognizes our foundation as tax-exempt. Donors are strongly advised to consult their professional advisors regarding tax implications and potential benefits of their contributions.
- Forms of Donation: Fair Future accepts contributions in cash or listed securities. In-kind services may also be considered, subject to our discretion and alignment with our mission.
- Voluntary Engagement: Individuals interested in volunteering must be of legal age or obtain written consent from their guardians. Volunteering is highly valued and considered a significant contribution to our cause.
- Consideration of Gifts: Donations such as real estate, personal property, or those with restricted use require careful assessment due to potential liabilities they may entail. We ensure thorough evaluation to safeguard both the donor’s intentions and our foundation’s interests.
- Acknowledgement and Transparency: Fair Future acknowledges donors who meet tax requirements and respects their preferences regarding anonymity or restrictions on their gifts. We uphold confidentiality regarding anonymous donations, honouring the wishes of the donor.
