Your generosity helps the Council preserve culture, serve the community, support youth, and build a durable organization for future generations.

Donations are processed through Zeffy, the Council’s system of record for donation transactions.

What Your Gift Can Support

Council gifts may support:

  • Cultural celebrations and educational activities
  • Youth and scholarship opportunities
  • Community service initiatives
  • Program and event materials
  • Public outreach and communications
  • Historical preservation
  • General operations that make mission-aligned work possible

Unless a specific approved campaign or designation is offered through Zeffy, a donation should be understood as general support for the Council’s charitable and educational mission.

Donor Trust

The Filipino-American Council of the Mississippi Gulf Coast is organized exclusively for charitable and educational purposes under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code.

Council funds must be used for mission-aligned purposes. No part of net earnings may benefit private individuals except as permitted by law for legitimate services, reimbursements, or charitable distributions.

Zeffy provides the transaction confirmation and any receipt information associated with the donation. Donors should retain those records and consult their own tax adviser regarding deductibility.

Other Ways to Help

Organizations and businesses may explore sponsorships. People who can offer goods, venues, or professional services may review in-kind support.

Every gift—financial or practical—becomes most valuable when it is coordinated around a real community need.
