Manifest Foundation

FAQ's

Q:  What and who does the General Fund of Manifest support?
A:  We currently support five non-profit partners (please see our Partners page). Our Impact Partners are reputable and transparent organizations with aligned missions to that of Manifest Foundation, in uplifting the lives of children and families both domestically and internationally.  Our partners are accountable and have agreed to provide Manifest Foundation with regular updates, financial transparency, and full cooperation as a collaborative partner.  Through collaborating with accountable organizations providing the "on the ground work", The Manifest Foundation is able to serve as a synergistic partner, helping all organizations involved be more efficient and mutually supportive of each other's work, and helping us provide a "Total Solutions" approach to impacting the lives of children and famiies.

Q:  Can you provide an example of the "Total Solutions" approach to impacting children and families?
A:  Yes.  Hug It Forward builds economically and environmentally sound schools in third world countries.  By unifying them with Water4Everyone, we also support children who are too sick to go to school due to the lack of clean water in the village!

Q:  What are the criteria for choosing a partner to support?
A:  Manifest Foundation Humanitarian Impact Allocation must be used for worthwhile projects involving work in the combined areas of food, water, education, well-being, energy, eco-sustainability, in alignment and in accordance with the mission and vision of Manifest Foundation.

Manifest Foundation will support organizations and projects of a grass roots, small, community based nature; as well as sizeable organizations and projects, as long as the audited administrative efficiency rating is 85% or higher.

Priority is to be given to projects, which will bring visible, measurable, and sustainable results and can be readily identified as Manifest Foundation initiatives, upon approval of the project application process

Q:  Can I specifiy my online donation for a specific project?
A:  Not at this time.  Manifest has gone to great lengths to understand the individual goals of each partner, having them submit project plans and budget requirements.  We are best able to help all of our partners simultaneously by allocating monthly contributions to them that are sustainable, according to our unified and collaborative plan.  Your support of a monthly contribution to our General Fund helps our partners plan with greater precision and to deliver more impactful results.  We believe it is equally important for you to feel confident about the partnerships Manifest Foundation makes, as it is for you to feel confident in the integrity of Manifest.  We thank you for your ongoing trust and support in the development of these partnerships and the impact we can together create.

Q:  If I want my donation to go to a specific partner or project, how do I do that?
A:  You may send in a check to The Manifest Foundation at...

5360 Legacy Drive
Building 1, Suite 300
Plano, TX 75024

Be sure indicate the Partner or Project you want it to go to in the Memo line on the check.

Q:  Is there a way to sponsor individual children or families through Manifest?
A:  Not currently, however, it is a program we are intending to develop as Manifest partnership success grows.  Several of our voluntour trips and local events will also provide you a way to connect and meet the actual children and families you are supporting both domestically and abroad.

Q:  Does Manifest accept in-kind donations?
A:  In certain circumstances, yes.  The best way to find out if your in-kind donation can be used to support either the General Fund or one of our partners is to fill out the Information Request Form.

Q:  How do I set up a Team Dream Voluntour?
