Frequently
Asked
Questions
How is my donation used?
Eden allocates funds according to our standards-based budget framework, with resources directed to landscape partnership (approximately 7-10%), sustainable livelihoods (approximately 35-37%), and mosaic landscape restoration (approximately 53-56%). These percentages vary slightly by project based on local needs and contexts.
Is my donation tax-deductible?
Yes, Eden: People+Planet is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization (Tax ID 95-4804581). Your contribution is tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law.
How does monthly giving work?
Monthly giving is processed automatically using your preferred payment method. You can adjust or cancel your monthly gift at any time through your online account or by contacting our donor support team.
What kind of updates will I receive?
All supporters who choose to receive our regular newsletter will receive project updates and restoration stories showing the impact of your ongoing support.
How do I get a receipt for my donation?
You'll receive an automated receipt via email immediately after making your donation. Annual tax summaries are provided in January for the previous year's contributions.
Why does my account show Givebutter instead of GoFundMe Pro?
Eden has transitioned to Givebutter for improved donation processing and user experience. Your donation continues uninterrupted with enhanced security and better management tools.
Can I still designate my gift to a specific country or region?
We've consolidated our giving to support all restoration work globally. This allows us to respond quickly to opportunities and ensure sustainable impact across all our projects through our blended finance approach.
What happened to my monthly tree purchases?
Your support continues to restore landscapes and support communities - we just measure impact differently now. Instead of counting individual trees, we focus on hectares restored and comprehensive ecosystem health across entire landscapes.
My donation supported a location where Eden no longer works. What should I do?
Please transition your support to our general fund, which enables carbon-eligible landscape restoration projects with 40-year community commitments. We're happy to help you make this change.
Why can't I purchase trees anymore?
Landscape restoration creates far greater impact than tree planting alone. This approach delivers verified carbon capture, provides 40-year community benefits, protects existing forests while restoring degraded areas, and creates sustainable funding through carbon markets. Your support now enables permanent transformation rather than temporary interventions.
What if I don't have my donation receipt?
Receipts are sent to the email address you entered when you submitted your donation. You can use the link in any recurring donation receipt to manage your recurring plan - it doesn't need to be the most recent one. If you can't find your receipt, check your spam folder or contact us at info@eden-plus.org for assistance.
How often are monthly donations charged?
Monthly donations are processed on the same date each month that you originally set up your donation. For example, if you started on the 15th, you'll be charged on the 15th of each month.
Will I be notified if my payment method expires?
Yes, Givebutter will email you before your payment method expires, giving you time to update your information before your next donation is processed.
