Refund Policy

Legal Disclaimer

The information in this Refund Policy is for general informational purposes only and does not constitute legal or financial advice. The American Warriors Foundation makes no warranties about the applicability of this policy to your situation. We reserve the right to modify it at any time, subject to applicable U.S. federal and Kansas state laws.

Refund Policy for American Warriors Foundation

The American Warriors Foundation ("we," "us," or "our"), a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt nonprofit organization founded and organized under the laws of the State of Kansas, deeply appreciates the generosity of our donors and supporters. This Refund Policy outlines our approach to refunds for donations made through our website, amwarriorsfdn.org (the "Website"), or other authorized channels. By making a donation, you agree to the terms below.

1. General Policy: Donations Are Non-Refundable

As a nonprofit dedicated to serving American warriors, including veterans, and their families, we rely on donations to fund our mission. In accordance with standard nonprofit practices and IRS guidelines for tax-deductible contributions, all donations are considered final and non-refundable unless an exception applies (see below).

Once a donation is processed, it may be allocated immediately to support our programs, making refunds impractical in most cases.

2. Exceptions for Refunds

We may issue a refund under the following limited circumstances:

Processing Errors: If a donation is made in error due to a technical issue (e.g., duplicate charges or incorrect amount caused by Website malfunction), we will refund the erroneous portion.

Unauthorized Transactions: If a donation was made without your consent (e.g., due to fraud or a compromised payment method), we will refund it upon verification.

Event Cancellations: If a donation was tied to a specific event (e.g., a fundraising gala) and we cancel the event without rescheduling, we may offer a refund or credit at our discretion.

Legal Requirements: If a refund is required by U.S. federal or Kansas state law, we will comply accordingly.

3. Refund Request Process

To request a refund, contact us within 7 days of the donation date at:

Email: amwarriorsfdn@outlook.com

Phone: (719) 413-7633

Mail: American Warriors Foundation, 3314 SW 6th Ave, Topeka Kansas, 66606

Please provide:

Your name and contact information.

The donation date, amount, and transaction ID (if available).

A brief explanation of the reason for your request.

We will review your request and respond within 1-3 Business Days. Refunds, if approved, will be issued to the original payment method unless otherwise agreed.

4. Third-Party Payment Processors

Donations made through the Website are processed by third-party providers (e.g., PayPal, Stripe). Their terms of service and refund policies may also apply, especially for disputes like chargebacks. We are not responsible for delays or decisions made by these processors, though we will assist in resolving issues where possible.

5. Tax Implications

If a refund is issued, it may affect the tax-deductibility of your original donation. We will adjust any tax receipts as required by IRS regulations and notify you accordingly. Consult a tax professional for guidance on your specific situation.

6. Discretionary Authority

We reserve the right to refuse or approve refund requests at our sole discretion, except where legally obligated. This includes denying refunds for donations made intentionally and later regretted, as such contributions are considered completed gifts under nonprofit law.

7. Compliance with Law

This policy complies with the Kansas Consumer Protection Act (K.S.A. 50-623 et seq.), which prohibits deceptive practices, and IRS rules governing charitable contributions. We aim to handle all refund requests fairly and transparently.
