Our 501(c)(3) Status

The Iris Center is proud to be a fully recognized 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization.

This designation means that your donations directly support our mission of providing accessible, affirming healthcare and community programs—and they are fully tax-deductible to the extent permitted by law.

Why this matters

Becoming a 501(c)(3) nonprofit affirms our commitment to transparency, accountability, and long-term sustainability. It allows us to accept donations directly, apply for grants, and ensure that every dollar goes toward building the kind of healthcare system our community deserves.

Are donations tax-deductible?

Yes. As an approved 501(c)(3), The Iris Center issues tax receipts for all donations. Donors will receive receipts and year-end statements directly from us for their records.

Our promise of transparency

Trust is at the heart of everything we do. We are committed to keeping our community informed about how we’re funded, how resources are used, and the impact we’re making together.

We’re deeply grateful for your belief in our mission and for helping us create a model of care that is safe, inclusive, and community-driven.
