Website Terms

Clear expectations for using this site

These terms cover website use, applications, accounts, and links to outside services.

Effective date: August 7, 2026

Website purpose

This website provides information about New Foundations Initiative, accepts requests and inquiries, supports volunteer and partner coordination, and links to third-party services. Website content is general information and is not legal, financial, construction, medical, or emergency advice.

Applications and eligibility

Submitting an application, referral, document, or inquiry does not guarantee eligibility, acceptance, funding, scheduling, repairs, or any particular outcome. NFI may request more information, verify details, prioritize requests, refer an applicant elsewhere, or decline work based on safety, scope, resources, service area, and program requirements.

NFI is not an emergency service. For an immediate danger, contact emergency services or the appropriate utility or public authority.

Accounts and acceptable use

You are responsible for providing accurate information, protecting your sign-in credentials, and using only accounts and records you are authorized to access. Do not misuse forms, upload malicious files, interfere with the site, impersonate another person, or attempt to access another applicant’s information.

Donations and third-party services

Online payments may be processed through Stripe or Givebutter and are also subject to the selected provider’s terms. NFI does not promise that a particular donation will fund a specific home, family, repair, or item unless NFI confirms that restriction in writing. Contact NFI before donating if you need written clarification about designation, receipts, or organizational status. Donors should consult their own tax adviser regarding any claimed deduction.

Volunteer and project activity

Submitting a volunteer or contractor form does not create an employment, contractor, agency, or partnership relationship. Participation may require additional screening, waivers, safety requirements, supervision, licensing, insurance, or project-specific approval.

Content and outside links

Site content may be updated as projects and policies develop. Outside links are provided for convenience; NFI does not control outside services or their availability, content, privacy, or security practices.

Availability and limitation

NFI works to keep the website accurate and available but does not guarantee uninterrupted access or error-free content. To the extent permitted by law, use of the website is at your own risk.
