Third-party sources contracted with Harris Kids Foundation may collect information through a variety of methods:
On-Line Donations: When making an online donation through our website, we ask for billing information such as billing address and credit card number.

Your billing information is not shared with any other organization and your credit card number is not retained once your transaction has been completed.

Use of E-mail Addresses: When you donate to Harris Kids Foundation, sign up for news & updates on our website, or share your story with us, you will be asked to provide your email address. Through these emails, you may receive marketing communications from us. E-mail addresses obtained through these sources are not sold, rented or exchanged to any third party. L & J Harris Kids Foundation complies with the Federal Trade Commission’s CAN-SPAM Act. All of our email messages contain a link to unsubscribe from Harris Kids Foundation emails. If you do not wish us to contact you via email, you can choose to unsubscribe at any time by clicking the link at the bottom of any email received and manage subscriptions or write to L & J Harris Kids Foundation to opt out of receiving solicitations and news updates (see How to Opt-Out procedures below).
Direct Mail: L & J Harris Kids Foundation employs an annual direct mail campaign to provide information and solicit support for our program. The names of donors who contribute through the Foundation’s direct mail program are used for donor renewal mailings as part of the annual direct mail campaign and to forward thank you / tax letters. No donation history is made available to any party outside the Foundation other than to our contracted third-party vendor who manages our direct mail campaign.
From time to time, L & J Harris Kids Foundation will rent or exchange names and email addresses of our direct mail donors with other trusted IRS recognized charities in exchange for an equal number of names and addresses of that charity’s donors. Since our mission is to help underprivileged children and concurrently educate the public about our programs, it is necessary to raise funds to support these endeavors. The direct mail acquisition exchange process is an essential element of our program and we have found this to be the most cost-effective method of reaching additional new supporters while keeping expenses as low as possible. We place an “opt Out” option in our May and October mailings. Donors who select the “Opt Out” option are identified in our files and suppressed from future mailings. You may also choose to opt out of mailings as well as request your name be removed from a rental or exchange list by writing to us at: L & J Harris Kids Foundation, P.O. BOX 241, Monroe, GA 30656
