Artists United for Nepal: Campaign Terms & Transparency

Artists United for Nepal is a fundraising initiative by Gallerria to support disaster relief efforts in Nepal following the recent flooding and related natural disasters.

Gallerria is a commercial art business and is not a registered charity or non-profit organisation. Artwork purchases made through Gallerria remain commercial purchases of artwork. Under this campaign, Gallerria has committed to contributing a defined portion of eligible sales and auction proceeds to the Government of Nepal’s Prime Minister’s Disaster Relief Fund.

1. Campaign Period

The Artists United for Nepal campaign will run from 04 September through 30 September 2026, inclusive, unless otherwise stated by Gallerria.

2. Contribution From Artwork Sales

For eligible artwork sales made during the campaign period, Gallerria will contribute 50% of the eligible sale amount to the Government of Nepal’s Prime Minister’s Disaster Relief Fund.

The eligible sale amount means the artwork purchase price actually paid by the customer, excluding GST, VAT, sales tax or other applicable transaction taxes collected from the customer and remitted by Gallerria or otherwise required to be collected by law.

Shipping charges and other separately stated charges are not included in the eligible sale amount unless expressly stated otherwise on the relevant campaign or product page.

3. Sitewide Sales Contribution

Where Gallerria advertises that the campaign applies to sitewide sales, Gallerria will contribute 50% of eligible sitewide sales made during the stated campaign period.

The contribution will be calculated after excluding GST, VAT, sales tax or other applicable transaction taxes collected from customers and remitted by Gallerria or otherwise required to be collected by law.

4. Artists United for Nepal Fundraising Auction

For artworks offered through the Artists United for Nepal fundraising auction, Gallerria will contribute 100% of the Net Auction Proceeds to the Government of Nepal’s Prime Minister’s Disaster Relief Fund.

Net Auction Proceeds means the winning bid amount actually received by Gallerria, less applicable taxes and reasonable, directly attributable costs of conducting and fulfilling the auction, including shipping, payment processing and other direct transaction costs.

Gallerria will not represent the full winning bid amount as the charitable contribution where applicable taxes or eligible direct auction costs are deducted.

5. No Claim of Tax-Deductible Donation

Purchasing artwork or participating in the auction is a commercial transaction and does not constitute a direct donation by the customer to Gallerria or to the Government of Nepal.

Customers should not assume that the amount paid for an artwork or auction item is tax-deductible as a charitable donation. Customers should obtain independent tax advice if they require advice regarding the tax treatment of their purchase.

6. Recipient of Campaign Contributions

Campaign contributions will be made to the Government of Nepal’s Prime Minister’s Disaster Relief Fund.

Gallerria does not control, administer or determine how funds are ultimately allocated or spent by the Government of Nepal after the funds have been transferred.

7. Timing of Contributions

Gallerria will calculate the final campaign contribution following the conclusion of the campaign period.

Gallerria intends to transfer the applicable contribution to the Government of Nepal’s Prime Minister’s Disaster Relief Fund following completion of the campaign reconciliation process and subject to the practical requirements of international payment and fund-transfer processes.

8. Campaign Transparency

Following completion of the campaign, Gallerria will publish a campaign transparency update on its website.

Where applicable, the transparency update will include:

• the total eligible sales used to calculate the campaign contribution;
• the total amount contributed from eligible artwork and sitewide sales;
• the total Net Auction Proceeds;
• the total amount transferred to the Government of Nepal’s Prime Minister’s Disaster Relief Fund;
• the date of the transfer; and
• reasonable evidence or confirmation of the transfer, subject to the removal of sensitive banking or personal information.

9. Refunds and Cancelled Transactions

No campaign contribution will be calculated on transactions that are subsequently cancelled, refunded, reversed, charged back or otherwise not successfully completed.

If an artwork purchase is refunded or reversed after a campaign contribution has already been transferred, Gallerria may account for the refunded amount in its campaign reconciliation or make a corresponding adjustment to a subsequent contribution.

10. Campaign Communications

Gallerria may refer to the campaign and its contributions in advertising, social media, email, website content and other promotional communications.

Any statement regarding the amount or percentage contributed will be based on the calculation methods described in these Campaign Terms & Transparency.

Gallerria does not represent itself as a charity or as an agent, representative or employee of the Government of Nepal.

11. Use of Funds

Once transferred to the Government of Nepal’s Prime Minister’s Disaster Relief Fund, the use and allocation of the funds are subject to the Government of Nepal’s applicable procedures and policies. Gallerria does not control or determine the subsequent use of the funds.
