XOL ORIGINAL is a 509(a)(2) public charity nonprofit operating under the 501(c)(3) umbrella, which means we’re recognized as a federally tax-exempt organization dedicated to serving the public good. As a 509(a)(2), our support comes primarily from community contributions and earned income - not from large private foundations - keeping our work grounded in the people and cultures we serve.

This designation reflects our commitment to transparency, accessibility, and reciprocity. Every purchase, donation, and partnership directly sustains programs that preserve Indigenous craft traditions, uplift artisans, and create meaningful opportunities for cultural exchange and education. Through this community-supported model, XOL ORIGINAL ensures that heritage work remains living, evolving, and connected to the hands and stories that shape it.

Every contribution directly empowers Indigenous artists and fosters vibrant new collaborations. Your generosity helps us acquire much-needed materials & equipment, sustains our vital operations, and provides crucial support to the Indigenous communities we partner with.
