Every contribution funds the organizing, the briefings, and the rooms that carry Hindu-American priorities to Washington. Give once, or become a monthly sustainer, and make sure your community is represented on the issues that matter to your family.
Hindu Americans lead the country in education, in entrepreneurship, and in charitable giving. What the community has not always had is a unified, well-funded platform speaking for it in Washington. RHC is that platform, and it runs on the people who believe in it.
Your contribution funds the coalition's core work: organizing Hindu-American voters and volunteers, building relationships with candidates and members of Congress, producing the briefings and policy materials members rely on, and hosting the conferences and Dinner & Diwali gatherings that bring the community together. RHC leads with access and advocacy, not overhead and merchandise, so more of what you give reaches the mission.
The Republican Hindu Coalition is organized under Section 501(c)(4) of the Internal Revenue Code. Contributions to RHC are not deductible as charitable contributions for federal income tax purposes. That structure is deliberate. It is what allows RHC to advocate directly, on legislation, on candidates, and on the issues that shape the community's future, in a way charitable nonprofits cannot.

No. RHC is a 501(c)(4) organization, so contributions are not deductible as charitable contributions for federal income tax purposes. This is what lets RHC advocate directly on legislation and elections for the Hindu-American community, work that charitable 501(c)(3) groups are limited from doing.
It is shagun, the tradition of the auspicious “one more.” A gift of $101 or $251 carries the blessing of continuity, the “and one” that signals a relationship rather than a closed transaction. It is built into every RHC ladder on purpose.
Yes, and it is the most valuable way to give. Monthly sustainers starting at $11 give the coalition a steady, plannable base. Sustainers are recognized in the annual report and can adjust or pause anytime.
Payment processors take a small percentage of every online gift. If you check the cover-the-fee box, you add a few percent to your total so that 100% of your intended gift actually reaches RHC.
Yes. A donation is a contribution at any amount and cadence. Membership is a defined tier with a benefits ladder, card, briefings, event access, and council recognition. Many supporters do both, and if you give $101 or more you may already qualify as a General Member.
Contributions should come from individuals eligible to give under applicable US law. Before launch, RHC will confirm and post the exact eligibility rules on the form. If you are unsure whether a planned gift qualifies, contact the RHC finance team before giving.
