DONATIONS
GlobalAloha.org may provide opportunities to make charitable contributions to ID8 in support of Global Aloha and its programs.

Donations may be processed by third-party payment providers, including Stripe, PayPal, and Venmo, and are also subject to the applicable provider’s terms and policies.

Unless otherwise stated, donations are voluntary charitable contributions and do not constitute the purchase of goods or services.

If a designated program is completed, discontinued, fully funded, or circumstances make the original purpose impractical, ID8 may use the contribution for a related charitable purpose or where it can best advance the organization’s mission, to the extent permitted by law.

Information regarding the tax deductibility of a contribution is provided for general informational purposes only. Donors should consult their own tax advisers regarding their individual circumstances.
