The American India Foundation only collects and uses personal information (such as name, address, phone number, and email address) when someone voluntarily provides it to us. In addition, The American Foundation maintains records of each donor’s giving history, which are utilized for distributing receipts and acknowledgment letters for donations, informing supporters of important news and upcoming events, internal analysis and review, optimizing the efficiency of our fundraising systems, and complying with requirements as mandated by federal law. Constitutents may request not to be solicited in the future, opt out of informational mailings, and to be recognized anonymously.
