Michelle Francisco Foundation

Our Purpose

Why the Foundation exists.

The primary mission of the Michelle Francisco Foundation is to uplift underserved communities through sustainable housing projects, educational support, healthcare access, sustainable livelihood, sustainable mobility solutions, disaster relief, and youth empowerment programs.

Quoted from the Foundation’s Certificate of Incorporation, Article THIRD, filed with the Delaware Secretary of State on 4 August 2025.

The Corporation is organized exclusively for charitable, educational and humanitarian purposes under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, and is recognized by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service as tax-exempt with effect from 6 August 2025. It is not organized for pecuniary profit, it has no capital stock, and no part of its net earnings may be distributed to any director, officer or individual.

What the Foundation is chartered to do

The Certificate of Incorporation authorizes the Foundation to engage in activities including, but not limited to, the following. This is the chartered scope of the Foundation, not a list of programs currently running — see Programs.

Sustainable housing for the deserving families
Providing scholarships and learning resources
Organizing health missions and medical assistance
Supporting sustainable livelihood and skills training
Sustainable mobility donations for public transport operators
Disaster relief for natural calamities and disasters
Collaborating with local and international partners for community development

The Foundation will honor any donation designated by a donor to a specific charitable entity.

Programs

What your gift supports.

Pending governing documents. The list of programs actually operating, and what each one delivers must be taken verbatim from the Foundation’s board-approved program plan and minutes rather than drafted here. Supply the document and this block is filled in.

The Foundation was granted tax-exempt status with effect from 6 August 2025 and is in its start-up phase. A program is listed here only once the Board has approved it and it is genuinely operating — described in plain terms, so a donor can tell who is served, where, and what the money pays for. The Foundation’s chartered scope is set out under Our Purpose.

The Foundation does not claim any partner, sponsor or collaborating institution on this site unless a signed agreement is in place.

What we tell every donor

The Michelle Francisco Foundation is a 501(c)(3) organization, EIN 37-2191972. Contributions are deductible for U.S. federal income tax purposes to the extent allowed by law.
If you receive anything in return for a gift — goods, services, naming, tickets, or other benefits — only the amount of your gift above the fair market value of what you received is deductible. For gifts over $75 where a benefit is provided, the Foundation gives you a written statement of that value.
How much of your income you may deduct depends on your own circumstances and the type of gift. We do not give tax advice; please consult your own adviser.
You will receive a written acknowledgement for any single gift of $250 or more, which you need in order to claim a deduction.
Gifts are used at the Foundation’s discretion within its exempt purpose unless you and the Foundation agree in writing to restrict them.

Donor Privacy

What we do with your information.

The Foundation collects only the information it needs to process a gift, acknowledge it, and meet its reporting obligations.

We do not sell, rent, trade, or share donor lists with anyone for marketing purposes.
We publish a donor’s name only with that donor’s permission. You may give anonymously.
You can ask us at any time to correct your details, stop contacting you, or remove you from our records, by emailing donate@michellefranciscofoundation.com.
Where a payment processor handles your card or bank details, those details go to the processor and are not stored by the Foundation.
This website does not use cookies, analytics, or any other tracking technology, and does not share your visit with any third party. If that changes, this page will say so before it happens.
