Donation Activities in 2025
Donating involves more than just the click of a button. Wherever possible, we personally visit charitable organizations to engage directly with their staff. This allows us to gain a deeper understanding of their operations, challenges, and the impact of their work. During these visits, we explore how donations are used and what tangible results are achieved. Our goal is to see firsthand the positive change our contributions help to create.
Overview
By the end of 2024, the Hoperation Fund’s portfolio delivered a 41.3% return, generating $4,419.13 in profit. In 2025, 80% of this profit ($3,535.30) will be donated to carefully selected nonprofit organizations, with a small portion allocated to support Hoperation Fund operations. The remaining 20% will be reinvested in the stock market.
Organizations Received Our Donations in 2025
Below are the nonprofit organizations and charities that have received our donations. We are actively exploring additional organizations, and more will receive our donations this year.
The Libuton Elementary School (Manukan, Philippines)
The Libuton Elementary School in Manukan, Philippines, is located in an underprivileged area with limited resources to improve its campus and the quality of education. The school is in urgent need of external support.
At the Hoperation Fund, we are committed to helping the school with essential educational resources. In this summer, we donated $900 to the school helping it build a new, high-quality concrete wall to protect the campus and ensure student safety. We are also raising funds to donate books and essential learning materials. This initiative is actively underway from the summer of 2025.

Wikipedia
The Hoperation Fund donated $50 to Wikipedia.
Wikipedia is a free, online encyclopedia run by the nonprofit Wikimedia Foundation, where millions of articles are written and maintained by volunteers around the world. Anyone can read it, and most pages can be edited, with changes tracked publicly to help improve accuracy over time. Wikipedia aims for a neutral point of view and requires information to be verifiable through reliable sources, making it a useful starting point for learning about a topic—though it’s still wise to check the cited references for high-stakes or rapidly changing subjects.
