Which charities do you donate to?

When are donations made?
Once every fiscal quarter (every three months).
Where do you get the charity impact quantifications from?
All quantified charitable impacts (per unit(s) of currency donated (i.e. $1 plants 1 tree)) stated in Real Inc. are estimates derived directly from the websites of the organizations being donated to and / or distinguished charity evaluators of these organizations such as The Life You Can Save, Dollar Donation Club, GiveWell, and Animal Charity Evaluators.
We cannot guarantee that what is stated on these websites is accurate nor can we guarantee that what is stated will be fulfilled. We are not responsible for the accuracy and fulfillment of what is stated on these websites as well.
We have not yet implemented automatic synchronization of quantified charitable impacts from the organizations being donated to. That means that we manually check the websites of these organizations every so often to see if these quantifications have changed, and if so, they are updated accordingly on our end. This implies that there may be a delay between an organization changing its impact quantifications and Real Inc. seeing these changes, causing impact quantifications in Real Inc. not being aligned with those stated on the websites of these organizations being donated to. If you find that there is a difference between the quantified impacts on our end and of those stated on the websites of the organizations being donated to, please contact us and inform us so that we can make the proper updates.
How do I know you're actually donating to charity?
All our financials are open to the public. We have just launched and therefore have not put together any reports yet that we can post online, but if you email us with a request to take a look at the store's invoices and the donation receipts to see that they line up, you may.
We are in the process of developing donation trackability as well, which the customer will be able to tap into from the Track page where they will be able to verify that the donation has been made.
