The cornerstone of Jolkona Foundation is to ensure every donation, no matter how small, makes the biggest impact. To do that, we have created the Kona Fund to offset our operating costs, allowing us to allocate 100% of our donors' project-specific gifts to designated partners and finance our operations separately from our project donations.
We believe that through this commitment, everyone can contribute to making a difference through meaningful and deserving projects around the world.
We work hard to get the maximum out of every penny and to keep our operating costs low. However, it is impossible to get it to zero, and therefore we do need help in raising funds to support our minimal but essential operating costs.
The Kona Fund is financed primarily by private and corporate donations. However, we believe that everyone should have the option to support the value of an operationally efficient organization and to contribute to its success.
Therefore, we are now accepting contributions from our donor members for the Kona Fund, separate from their project donations.
As a donor, you can access your Kona Fund contributions on your profile page along with your gifts to other projects. Similar to other contributions, you will know how your gift to Kona Fund is being spent by getting the latest information on our expenses from our budget page (coming soon).
