About

Colón is a province of Panama, one of twelve and the sixth largest, covering about 5,130 square kilometres — 7% of the country. It lies in the north. It lies wholly within the tropics. It borders Coclé, Kuna Yala, Panama and Veraguas. The Panama Canal runs through it, and it takes in Lago Gatun.

The rest of Panama

The other subdivisions of Panama. Operations, tax and reporting are usually organised at this level rather than nationally, which is why they are listed at all.

Two ways to take part

They are different things, done by different entities, and one is never a route to the other.

Roarcry · the church

Give

A donation to the congregation. It is not repaid, earns nothing, and carries no claim on anything. Roarcry is not a registered 501(c)(3), so give as a gift rather than for a write-off.

A gift named for Panama is a restricted gift: recorded against Panama and spent there. If it cannot be spent there within a year it is pooled into the general fund and spent wherever it is needed most. That is a term of the gift, said here so that giving is agreeing to it.

Investment Fund, LLC · the issuer

Invest

A subscription for Class B units. It is at risk, it is not tax-deductible, it is not a donation, and you can lose all of it. Open only to verified accredited investors.

One fund covers every country on the map, on one set of terms. No country has its own vehicle, its own minimum or its own return.

The church is not the issuer, not a guarantor and not a party to any subscription. No donation to the church confers any interest in the fund.
