Mission
Gunther's family provides assistance to charitable organizations based in the US and abroad for the welfare of animals, marginalized communitites, women, and children. We focus on small organizations who, because of size, stage of formation, lack of resources or location may not effiencently manage donations on their own.
Program accomplishments
- In the third year of operation as a 501c3 entity, Gunther's Family continued assisting Ernesto's Sanctuary (also referred to as Ernesto's House of Cats), an NGO registered in Cremona, Italy, with managing donations for the animal sanctuary and clinic they operate in Syria. Gunther's Family has an OFAC license to allow donors to use PayPal and Wells Fargo bank to give to the Sanctuary. Ernesto's engaged in extensive animal rescue and humanitarian work in their community and beyond. Funds for the sanctuary went to increase service capacity such as equipment, vet supplies, food, and staffing. As in previous years, Gunther's Family received donations earmarked for the Sanctuary and then sent those funds to the Sanctuary's office in Italy to help fund its charitable activities. Gunther's Family set up Donorbox as a new giving platform for donors, which provides improved donor tracking and communications. Finally, Gunther's Family regularly communicated with the Sanctuary to ensure that its activities are in compliance with all applicable OFAC and IRS requirements. Gunther's Family makes all donors aware that funds earmarked for other entities are the property of Gunther's Family and subject to the discretion of the board in making any grants to other entities.Expenses $26,410 · grants $463,893 · revenue $547,129
