Yayasan Rumah Rachel ('Rachel House') is a registered Indonesian nonprofit. General charitable donations in Indonesia are not automatically deductible from personal income tax - only specific categories qualify under Government Regulation PP 93/2010 (donations for national disaster relief, research and development, education, sports development, and social-infrastructure built through approved channels). Zakat, infak and sedekah paid to a nationally licensed Lembaga Amil Zakat (LAZ) or to BAZNAS are deductible from gross taxable income under Law 23/2011 - proof of payment (Bukti Setor Zakat) is required. International donors can give through PayPal, GlobalGiving, or direct bank transfer (Indonesian banks: BCA, Mandiri, BNI, BRI); domestic donors typically use bank transfer, Kitabisa, BenihBaik, or e-wallets (GoPay, OVO, DANA, ShopeePay). Consult an Indonesian tax adviser for guidance specific to your situation.

Yayasan Rumah Rachel ('Rachel House') is a Yayasan (Indonesian foundation), governed by Law No. 28 of 2004 amending Law No. 16 of 2001. A yayasan is a private non-membership legal entity established for social, religious or humanitarian purposes; its assets are separated from its founders and managed by a board (Pembina, Pengurus, Pengawas). Yayasan are the most common legal form for Indonesian nonprofits - they cannot have profit-distributing members and must publish an annual financial statement to the founders' board. It is registered with Ditjen AHU under Indonesia's Ministry of Law and Human Rights (Kemenkumham).

You can verify Yayasan Rumah Rachel ('Rachel House')'s legal status in three ways. First, search Indonesia's official AHU registry at https://ahu.go.id/pencarian/yayasan (for Yayasan) or /pencarian/perkumpulan (for Perkumpulan) using the organisation's full Indonesian name - every legally-registered Yayasan or Perkumpulan must appear in that database with its SK Menkumham (decree number). Second, ask the organisation for its NPWP (taxpayer number) and the most recent akta yayasan or akta perkumpulan (notarial deed) - legitimate Indonesian nonprofits will share these on request. Third, check whether the organisation publishes annual financial reports (laporan keuangan) and a list of its board (pengurus) - both are required for legitimate Indonesian foundations under Law 28/2004.

Contact Yayasan Rumah Rachel ('Rachel House') directly for current donation methods. Indonesian charities typically accept bank transfers (Bank BCA, Mandiri, BNI, BRI), e-wallets (GoPay, OVO, DANA, ShopeePay, LinkAja), and donations via Indonesian fundraising platforms such as Kitabisa or BenihBaik. International donors can usually give via PayPal, GlobalGiving, or international wire transfer; remittance services like Wise or Western Union also work but the fee structure varies. Always confirm the recipient's bank-account name and NPWP / registration number before sending funds, and ask for a written acknowledgement (tanda terima donasi).

Yayasan Rumah Rachel ('Rachel House') is a secular Indonesian foundation and is not registered as a Lembaga Amil Zakat (LAZ), which is the category of body authorised to collect zakat in Indonesia. Donations to a Yayasan are treated as general charitable contributions, not zakat. For zakat, infak or sedekah intended to qualify for the tax deduction under Law No. 23 of 2011, donate through BAZNAS or a nationally licensed LAZ - the Ministry of Religious Affairs publishes the current LAZ list at https://baznas.go.id.
