Other options are also available! You can start a small recurring donation, donate one time, or simply subscribe to our newsletter to stay in touch.


 

RUF, as a 100% pass-through entity, exists mainly because a small number of dedicated people underwrite all operational and fundraising costs: our Members, our Founding Angels, and our Strategic Sponsors. Our 5-year plan assumes no individual will represent more than 10% of the sources of operational revenues.

This is your opportunity to become part of a special community of monthly donors who are committed to helping RUF further its mission of connecting Romanian communities worldwide. Your recurring donation can make a significant difference by allowing us to continue executing our mission.

Your monthly gift ensures a predictable income to cover the organization’s operational expenses. You can change or cancel your membership at any time.
