- Corporate Social Responsibility
Hope.MD believes that comprehensive corporate social responsiblity lies at the foundation of long term shareholder value. It is not an afterthought, it is the most important thought. Our first public fundraising initiatives focused on what happens when a disconnect develops between fiduciary responsibility and social responsiblity in the communities where multi-national corporations decide to do business. Hope.MD holds itself to the same standards and works tirelessly to function in a manner that is consistent with the social mores and ethics of host nations where we operate. Our corporate officers disclose annual fundraising results and expenses in keeping with our commitment to open source budgetary principles. Questions about our commitment to corporate social responsiblity can be directed to legal@hope.md.
- Fiscal Transparency and Accountability
The Hope.MD Foundation maintains full compliance with IRS, OFAC, FINCEN, and Treasury directives IAW the CFR and other relevant federal statutes. Donor contributions are subject to periodic review and audit to maintain full compliance with legally required supporting documentation. Hope.MD currently maintains a full listing of all contributions on its website and will continue to do so all long as practical. Should the listing become excessively lengthy, a compiled .PDF annual report will be publicly available at the same website location. Hope.MD is committed to open source budgeting principles to maintain full, transparent accountability for the use of all funds. No members of the board of directors receive any compensation of any kind for services rendered. All payments are made to registered organizations such as embassies, customs, and airlines that are registered in states that maintain OFAC compliance.
