Giving FAQ
How does Origami Legal give back?
10% of each sale (excluding third-party fees, such as government filing fees or vendor service fees) is donated to 501(c)(3) charities. This program begins March 1, 2022.
Which charities does Origami Legal donate to?
When checking out, clients can choose a cause they would like to support. Origami Legal will select one or more charities related to that cause to donate to.
Can I choose the charity?
Not at this time. Unfortunately, Origami Legal doesn’t have the systems in place to make this feasible. It is something we may consider in the future. A list of charities and amounts donated to them will be available annually.
How does Origami Legal select the charities it donates to?
Origami Legal periodically researches charities using Charity Navigator and other resources with the goal of selecting the most impactful charities for a given cause. Donations are given to one or more charities based on this selection process.
How often does Origami Legal donate?
Monthly, quarterly, or annually. First, it depends on how much money has been reserved towards a particular cause – we don’t want to bog down charities with a few small donations. Second, it depends on how urgent the cause is. For instance, charities serving the victims of a particular disaster may have urgent needs for any funds we raise, and donations will be sent more frequently.
Does Origami Legal partner with the charities it donates to?
No, Origami Legal is not affiliated with any of the charities it donates to – or any charity, for that matter. Affiliation can be fraught for organizations, so we prefer to avoid direct partnership and the legal wrangling that can involve – we just send money.
