Geographic Concerns
Political Stability, Conflict Resolution, Promote Democracy, Assistance to RefugeesRegional and Geographic Organizations
These organizations operate a variety of educational, humanitarian and charitable programs. Many of these organizations partner with local “in country” nonprofits and NGO’s to accomplish their mission. Because these organizations often operate in conflicted or politically unstable regions or in countries where the government is considered adverse to U.S. interests, applications are closely reviewed and scrutinized.
There are additional issues to consider when operating a nonprofit outside the U.S. including the laws of both the U.S. and the nation where your organization is conducting its mission. Compliance with anti-money laundering rules and the Office of Financial Asset Control, administered by the Department of the Treasury, are of the utmost importance when operating outside the United States.
