Pathways of Support
Our approach to philanthropy is inspired by the innovative "Flow Funding" model developed by Marion Rockefeller Weber in the early 1990s, designed to quickly and directly channel resources to those making a tangible impact on the ground.
-
Your donations help us fund carefully selected US-based 501(c)(3)s that are practicing flow funding and committed to activities which align with our charitable and educational purposes.
These organizations are on the frontline of planetary regeneration, land remediation, land back initiatives, conservation, restoration, advancements in human health, social justice, Indigenous peoples’ rights, youth development, economic equity & more.
By donating to Kinship Earth, you are empowering these organizations to deepen their impact.
We require reports from our nonprofit partners to ensure funds are used as intended - fostering transparency and accountability.
-
Kinship Earth educates donors on how they can make direct non-tax deductible gifts to our network of Ambassadors—trusted community leaders and activists deeply engaged in grassroots work.
Per the IRS' 2024 gift tax exemption, if the amount given is less than $18,000, the donations can be treated as gifts.
This strategy bypasses reporting and taxation. As a result, these direct contributions empower Ambassadors to allocate funds within their communities without the burden of extensive reporting.
We work with our Ambassadors and end recipients to share their stories of how they used the funds to make a positive impact.
We encourage donors who support in this manner to focus on building relationships, ensuring a thoughtful and informed giving process.
-
We offer programs to educate donors on the principles and practices of Flow Funding, as well as on the ability to give non-tax-exempt gifts under the IRS' gift tax exclusion.

Make a DIRECT Gift to a Trusted Change Maker:
Direct giving fuels grassroots initiatives and empowers communities.
Did you know that according to the IRS' 2024 gift tax exemption, donations made under $18,000 can be treated as gifts - bypassing reporting and taxation?
This strategy enables our Ambassadors to allocate funds within their communities efficiently and effectively, without the burden of extensive reporting - a barrier often limiting grassroots initiatives access to resources.
By giving directly, you help break down these barriers and increase the flow of funds to individuals and groups that often struggle to access them.
This approach fosters a more personal and effective connection between donors and the impactful work happening in communities worldwide.
