Charitable Mission & Board Discretion
Homeroom Heroes is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. While our platform facilitates a bridge between donors and specific classroom wishlists, Homeroom Heroes maintains final discretion and control over the use of all donated resources. To maintain our charitable status, all donations made via this platform are considered contributions to Homeroom Heroes’ educational programs. Each project is vetted to ensure alignment with our mission; donors acknowledge that contributions are for charitable programs and are not intended as private gifts to individuals.
Tax-Deductibility & Gift-in-Kind Disclosures
Purchases made through third-party wishlists (e.g., Amazon.com or Amazon.ca) are transactions between the user and the third-party retailer. For tax purposes, your retailer purchase receipt serves as proof of the "Fair Market Value" of your gift-in-kind. Homeroom Heroes does not provide cash receipts for third-party purchases. No goods or services are provided by Homeroom Heroes to the donor in exchange for their contribution.
