Hope Initiative

Donation Policy

Last updated June 24, 2026

Voluntary Participation

Contributions to the Murielle Hair Braids Hope Initiative are entirely voluntary. Booking or shopping never requires a contribution.

Use of Contributions

Contributions support our three annual outreach campaigns — Easter Hope Outreach, Back-to-School Blessing, and Christmas Joy Outreach — providing meals, clothing, school supplies, gifts, and celebration for children in need.

Tax Status

The Hope Initiative is a family-led outreach ministry operated in partnership with our local church. It is not currently a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit, so contributions are generally not tax-deductible. Please consult your tax advisor.

Receipts & Refunds

You receive an automatic email receipt for every contribution. If a contribution was made in error, contact us promptly and we will review refund requests in good faith.

Transparency

We publish campaign goals, amounts received, and impact reports. We do not publish private donor information or detailed financial records.
