As of July 1, 2025, the Florida legislature instituted changes to the law that affect charitable organizations by prohibiting the solicitation or acceptance of funds from individuals or entities associated with a "foreign source of concern," defined in the statute to include the governments, official political parties or party members, entities organized under or doing business in (including subsidiaries, agents or affiliates), individuals who are not U.S. citizens or U.S. permanent residents domiciled in, the following designated countries: China, Russia, Iran, North Korea, Cuba, Venezuela (specifically, the Venezuelan regime of Nicolás Maduro), and Syria -- or individuals or entities "controlled" by one of the above parties that holds at least a 25% interest or voting control or any representative or intermediary acting on behalf of the aforementioned.

I certify that neither I nor any entity I control is a “foreign source of concern” as defined in Fla. Stat. § 496.404, and that this contribution is not made on behalf of such a source. I further certify that no foreign source exercises 25% or more voting or profit control over any entity through which this contribution is made. I understand that misrepresentation may subject me to penalties under Florida law.
