Zero Profit Prints
From time to time, Remeika Photography designates one print in the shop as a “zero-profit print.” For every sale of this featured print, we donate all net proceeds from that purchase to an environmental charity or organization committed to preserving the beauty of our planet. The featured print and the receiving charity may change each month; please refer to our shop listings for current details.
Minimum Donation Guarantee
We guarantee a minimum donation amount equal to at least 10% of the print’s retail price. While the actual donated amount may exceed this minimum, we do not publicly disclose our exact profit margins. If you would like more information about the precise donation amount for any particular print, please feel free to contact us directly.
How the Charity Is Chosen
Each month, we select a new environmental charity or conservation group to receive the donation. If you would like to recommend a future beneficiary, please fill out our charity recommendation form and let us know why you think they are a great candidate.
Important Disclaimers
- No Tax Receipts for Purchasers: Because the contribution is made directly by Remeika Photography, buyers do not receive a charitable tax receipt.
- Validity of Charitable Status: We make reasonable efforts to confirm the legitimacy of each selected organization, but we do not guarantee its legal or charitable status beyond what is publicly available.
- Donation Timing: Donations are typically processed on a monthly or quarterly schedule. We reserve the right to adjust this timing as needed (e.g., for bookkeeping or logistical reasons).
- Policy Updates: We may update these zero-profit print terms from time to time. Any changes will apply to future purchases but will not affect donations already pledged.
If you have any questions or would like additional details, please email brandon@remeikaphoto.com. We appreciate your support in helping us conserve our planet’s natural beauty.
