NDI Donation Acceptance Policy
The National Democratic Institute (NDI) solicits and accepts contributions that further its mission. NDI is grateful for the support of individuals, corporations, foundations, government agencies, and other entities. Contributions are accepted in the form of checks, cash, wire transfers, credit card transactions by phone or online, stocks, and in-kind services. These contributions may be one-time gifts, recurring payments, pledges paid over a period of time, and planned giving.
All contributions support the Institute’s work around the globe. NDI will not accept any contributions it believes hinders the Institute’s ability to implement its mission to support democratic institutions and practices; therefore, NDI does not accept contributions from donors whose objectives or activities are incompatible with NDI’s mission or where acceptance of the contribution would be unlawful.
To express its gratitude, NDI publicly acknowledges all its donors who give $5,000.00 or more on the NDI website, at events and conferences, and in print or electronic annual reports. Each gift of $250.00 or more is given a postal or electronic receipt of the contribution. NDI does not sell, trade, or share its donor information with third parties.
NDI is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, tax-exempt organization. All contributions are tax-deductible as allowed by law. Donors will receive an acknowledgment letter by mail or email promptly after their contributions have been confirmed.
