Donation & Refund Policy

Thank you for standing behind first responders, veterans and their families. This policy explains how gifts to Honored 25 are received, used, receipted and, when needed, refunded.

1. Tax-exempt status

Honored 25 - The Mike Munding Legacy Foundation Inc is a 501(c)(3) public charity (EIN 99-4302350). Gifts are tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law. Please consult your tax advisor about your specific situation.

2. How we process gifts

Online gifts are processed securely by our donation platform, Donorbox, and its payment processors. At checkout you may choose to cover the processing fees so the full amount of your gift reaches Honored 25.

3. Receipts

You will receive an email receipt for each online gift. For any single gift of $250 or more, that receipt serves as the written acknowledgment required by the IRS. It states the amount and whether you received any goods or services in exchange. Keep your receipts for your tax records. If you need a duplicate or annual summary, email [donor contact email].

4. Event tickets, sponsorships and benefits

When a payment includes goods or services, such as an event ticket, meal, merchandise or sponsor benefits, only the amount above the fair market value of what you receive may be deductible. For payments over $75 that include goods or services, we will provide a written statement with a good-faith estimate of their value, as required by IRS rules. [Confirm fair market value per Unburdened ticket or sponsor package.]

5. Recurring gifts

Monthly gifts continue until you cancel. You can cancel or change a recurring gift at any time through your Donorbox donor account or by emailing [donor contact email]. Changes take effect before the next scheduled charge when received at least [X business days] ahead of it.

6. Refunds

Gifts are generally final. If you made an error, such as a wrong amount or a duplicate charge, contact us within [30] days of the gift at [donor contact email] and we will work with you to correct it. Approved refunds are returned to the original payment method. Processing fees charged by the payment processor may not be refundable. If a gift is refunded, the related tax receipt is no longer valid.

7. Designated gifts and campaigns

You may direct a gift to a specific program or campaign, such as a service dog for a 1 October first responder. We honor your designation to the fullest extent possible.

If a campaign raises more than it needs, cannot be completed, or its purpose becomes impossible or impractical, Honored 25 will use the remaining funds for a closely related program that serves the same community, or for our general charitable purposes. As a 501(c)(3), Honored 25’s board retains final discretion over the use of all contributions.

8. Donor privacy

We do not sell, rent or trade donor information. We may list donor or sponsor names in recognition materials only with permission, and you may give anonymously. See our Privacy Policy for details.
