Acceptance of any contribution, donation or grant is at the discretion of the mru2025. The mru2025 will not accept any donation unless it can be used or expended consistently with the purpose and mission of the mru2025.
No irrevocable donation, whether outright or life-income in character, will be accepted if under any reasonable set of circumstances the donation would jeopardize the donor’s financial security.
mru2025 will refrain from providing advice about the tax or other treatment of donations and will encourage donors to seek guidance from their own professional advisers to assist them in the process of making their donation.
mru2025 will not accept important donations in cash or publicly traded securities. Donations of in-kind services will be accepted at the discretion of the mru2025.
Certain other donations, real property, personal property, in-kind donations, non-liquid securities, and contributions whose sources are not transparent or whose use is restricted in some manner, must be reviewed prior to acceptance due to the special obligations raised or liabilities they may pose for mru2025.
mru2025 will provide acknowledgements to donors meeting tax requirements for property received by the charity as a donation. However, except for donations of cash and publicly traded securities, no value shall be ascribed to any receipt or other form of substantiation of a donation received by mru2025.
mru2025 will respect the intent of the donor relating to donations for restricted purposes and those relating to the desire to remain anonymous. With respect to anonymous donations, the mru2025 will restrict information about the donor to only those staff members with a need to know.
mru2025 will not compensate, whether through commissions, finders’ fees, or other means, any third party for directing a donation or a donor to mru20255.
