Support our Mission

Mekong Circle International, Inc., is a tax-exempt organization as specified under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Service Code, federal ID No.: 91-2080538. Donations made to Mekong Circle are tax-deductible charitable contributions. In addition, gifts or bequests made to Mekong Circle are deductible in computing federal gift and estate taxes.

If you are interested in helping our mission, financial support is the most efficient way to assist. Donations should be made payable to "Mekong Circle International" and sent to the address of Dr. Pete Paluay listed below.

Important: If you would like your donation to go to a specific project (for example, the scholarships program or reunion planning committee) please indicate with a notation in the lower left corner of the check on the "memo" line. Donations to specific programs also may be sent directly to the Mekong Circle corporate officer or representative in charge of that program. Please consult the Organization section for a complete list of officers and their contact information.

Funding is critical for the continuation of efforts such as the "Iskolars ng Mekong Circle" scholarships program, reunions, media projects and future medical missions.

Committees manage our programs as unpaid volunteers. Current expenses are met by proceeds from reunion events and other items. Mekong Circle depends mainly on the generosity and expertise of its members. Its projects aim for lasting results that are sustainable by its recipients.
