American Friends of the Institute of Economic Affairs
American Friends of the Institute of Economic Affairs (“AFIEA”) is a charitable and educational non-profit corporation incorporated in the Commonwealth of Virginia and organized under the requirements of Section 501 (c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. Its purpose is to improve public understanding of the foundations of a free and harmonious society by expounding and analyzing the role of markets in solving economic and social problems, and it may work in coalition with other similarly educational organizations, including The Institute of Economic Affairs (“IEA”), to do the same.
A United States donor wishing to support the work of The IEA may make a donation to American Friends of the Institute of Economic Affairs expressing a preference that the gift be applied for the benefit of the IEA. This may be a convenient way for a United States taxpayer to obtain a tax deduction, whilst supporting the work of The Institute, or for a foundation to do so without having to conduct expenditure responsibility and undertake extensive overseas due diligence as required by the Internal Revenue Service.
As a 501 (c) 3 organisation providing support to a non-US charity, AFIEA is controlled by its board of directors independently of The IEA with grant decisions made at their sole discretion. Accordingly, AFIEA cannot legally guarantee that a donation made to AFIEA will be granted to the IEA; however, the directors of AFIEA are mindful of the intentions of their donors.
AFIEA’s status as a 501 (c)(3) tax-exempt public charity has been confirmed by the Internal Revenue Service.
If you have any questions, please contact Katherine Price, Secretary and Treasurer of AFIEA, at Katherine.price@atlasnetwork.org. Tel: 202-449-8459
Checks made payable to the AFIEA can be mailed to Katherine Price, AFIEA, c/o Atlas Network, Two Liberty Center 4075 Wilson Boulevard, #310 Arlington, VA 22203.
Donors Capital Fund
Donors Capital Fund is pleased to work with the Institute of Economic Affairs (IEA) to further its
mission to improve understanding of the fundamental institutions of a free society by analyzing and
expounding the role of markets in solving economic and social problems.
If you would like to support the Institute of Economic Affairs, you may make a gift to Donors Capital Fund
designated for that purpose. Donors Capital Fund (DCF) is recognized by the Internal Revenue Service
as a 501(c)(3) publicly-supported charity, so all contributions to DCF by U.S. taxpayers are deductible
using the most favorable rules for charitable donations. (Please consult your tax advisor concerning the
deductibility of this or any charitable gift.)
Donations can be made using a check drawn on a U.S. bank, a wire transfer or ACH bank transfer, or by
credit card, PayPal, or Google Pay. Donors Capital Fund also accepts gifts of publicly-traded securities as
