GDG USA Transparency

Transparency

Global Development Group USA, Inc. (EIN: 20-5988003) is a 501(c)(3) Tennessee public nonprofit organization, based in Bedford, Indiana, carrying out humanitarian projects with approved partners and providing aid to relieve poverty.

Please see our Project Search page for all of the projects we send grants to on a monthly basis. All of the projects we support focus on Education, Philanthropy, Human Services, Quality Aid, Health, and Development.

Grant Management

All our grants are based on aggregated donations to each project and sent as a monthly award to GDG Australia, who disburses as subawards to each project internationally. GDG USA may receive payments through online bill pay, check, Paypal, Credit Card, and Wire/ACH transfers.

Integrity & Protection

GDG USA does not solicit funds either directly or indirectly but enables supporters in the US the opportunity to support their preferred project due to their existing passion or connection to that project. While having a Give Now page is legally considered a solicitation, we have approved Partners working directly with projects to help ensure that people are protected, the funds are being used as intended, and to manage/fundraise for donations. GDG USA’s role in the management of these donations includes: complying with IRS guidelines and reporting, assisting in policy and procedure development, providing administrative support and tax-deductible receipts for donors, access to online giving platforms, and awarding grants.
