Welcome
These terms cover your use of knownfor.org, operated by Known For, a nonprofit organization, EIN 42-4151114, based in Oceanside, California. By using the site, you agree to them. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.
What this site is
Known For is an informational and ministry website. We share our mission, our projects, and ways to get involved and give. We work to keep everything accurate, but we cannot promise it is always complete or error-free.
This is not a crisis service, and not professional advice
Nothing on this site is medical, mental health, legal, or professional advice, and using the site does not create any professional relationship.
If you are in crisis or thinking about harming yourself, please reach out for real help now. In the US, call or text 988, the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline. We care about you, and we are not equipped to be emergency help.
Using the site
Please use the site lawfully and respectfully. Do not attempt to disrupt it, misuse our forms, access it in ways it is not intended, or use our content to harm others.
Donations
Donations are voluntary gifts. Deductibility depends on your tax situation and our exemption status, so please consult your tax advisor. Gifts are generally non-refundable, but if you believe a gift was made in error, contact us at hello@knownfor.org and we will work with you in good faith. If you set up a recurring gift, you can cancel it at any time.
