Donation Information

The Ark-Tex Council of Governments (ATCOG) is a governmental entity that accepts donations to support our regional programs and services. As a Council of Governments, we operate differently from charitable organizations:

  • ATCOG does not conduct fundraising campaigns or actively solicit donations
  • We do accept voluntary contributions that support our mission of regional cooperation
  • All donations received go directly toward our community programs and services

When using our online donation platform, you may notice messaging about fundraising. Please note that while the platform itself may use fundraising terminology, ATCOG operates under governmental guidelines that prohibit active fundraising activities.

We appreciate your understanding of our unique position, and thank you for your support of our regional initiatives.

Your generous contributions enable us to continue serving our region.

When donating, Zeffy will ask for an extra donation to help cover their costs as company. If you do not want to donate to Zeffy, simply select ‘Other’ and enter $0.00.
