What if an organization changes its mission?

As individual donors, you may have limited influence over an organization’s mission, as U.S. charitable law mandates a degree of separation and independence for all charities. In the event that an organization changes its mission, we recommend engaging directly with the charity to understand the reasons behind this shift and how it aligns with your values. If the new mission does not align with your philanthropic goals, you may consider redirecting your support to a different charitable organization.
