Legal Structure

As a philanthropic investor, we are committed to transparency, accountability, and responsible stewardship of every dollar we receive.

S3IDF (The Small-Scale Sustainable Infrastructure Development Fund) is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization based in the United States. All donations made directly to S3IDF are fully tax-deductible to the extent permitted by law.

To manage our initiative—the Circular Economy Impact Collective (CEIC)—S3IDF has established a wholly owned, single-member LLC. This legal structure enables CEIC to operate with programmatic and financial distinction while remaining under the full ownership and oversight of S3IDF.

Donations to CEIC are made through this LLC and are also fully tax-deductible, as the LLC is treated as a disregarded entity for tax purposes and falls under S3IDF’s 501(c)(3) exemption.

This structure allows us to maintain clear governance, financial separation, and mission alignment across all of our activities.
