Where Your Donations Will Go
Senderos is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization, incorporated in 2004 as PEG Partners, Inc. Senderos/PEG is unusual in that 100% of donations go directly to projects in Guatemala unless the donor specifies otherwise. Since Senderos is almost entirely volunteer run in the US, we keep our administrative costs very low. Supporting those costs can be seen as a way to leverage change. If you would like some percentage of your donation to help with administration, please send an email or attach a note to your donation in PayPal and let us know your preference. (To clarify: if we don’t hear from you, none of your donation will go to administration.)
Ongoing Support
Please consider making an automatic monthly donation, which will ensure the sustainability of our work. In order to do so, you will need to have a PayPal account, which is free and easy to set up (to set one up, click the donate button above and follow the steps).
Designating a Particular Project
If you are interested in supporting a particular project or fundraising campaign, and you would like to designate your donation, feel free to send an email to let us know of your preference. Some projects are already fully funded and some needs shift over time, but we will try to satisfy your request and will be in touch with you if we can’t.
Senderos can also accept a variety of assets, including but not limited to, stocks, retirement contributions and estates:
- A Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD) from your retirement account is a way to get tax advantages for your charitable contributions. QCDs can be made from various types of IRAs, but not directly from a 401(k) plan.
- Transferring securities/stocks directly to Senderos’ brokerage account is a quick and easy way to make a tax-exempt donation.
- Leave Senderos in your estate with language as simple as: I give, devise, and bequeath to Senderos Guatemala located in Montreat, NC, Tax Identification Number 03-0549950, the sum of $ (or state percentage or fraction of the estate) to be used for its general purposes.
