Our Privacy Policy is designed to assist you in understanding how we collect and use the personal information you provide to us and to assist you in making informed decisions when using our website, as well as our products and services.
We request information from you on our contribution/registration payment form. To make a donation or to register for an event, you must provide contact information (such as your name and shipping address) and financial information (such as your credit card number and expiration date). This information is used for billing purposes and to fill your specific request. If we have trouble processing an order, we will use this information to contact you. We will never sell your information to third parties.
Charitable Contributions Policy
Generally, The Southwest Florida Community Foundation does not refund charitable contributions made online via this website. The Internal Revenue Service recognizes charitable contributions as irrevocable, unless a condition of the charitable contribution cannot be satisfied by the charity. The Southwest Florida Community Foundation will provide each donor with a charitable contribution gift acknowledgment to document properly the donation for the donor’s income tax records.
Refund/Cancellation Policy
The Southwest Florida Community Foundation is unable to offer a refund for event registration unless the event is cancelled. If you are unable to attend an event, someone from your organization or family is welcome to take your place.
