Substantiation Rules - From the IRS
-
A donor cannot claim a tax deduction for any single contribution of $250 or more unless the donor obtains a contemporaneous written acknowledgment of the contribution from the recipient public charity. A public charity may assist the donor by providing a timely written statement including the name of the public charity, date and amount of any cash contribution and description of any noncash contributions.
-
In addition, the acknowledgment should indicate whether any goods or services were provided in return for the contribution. If any goods or services were provided in return for a contribution, the organization should provide a description and good faith estimate of the value of the goods or services.
-
The public charity may either provide separate acknowledgments for each single contribution of $250 or more or one acknowledgment to substantiate several single contributions of $250 or more. Separate contributions are not aggregated for purposes of measuring the $250 threshold.
-
There are no IRS forms for the acknowledgment. Letters, postcards or computer- generated forms with the above information are acceptable. An organization can provide either a paper copy of the acknowledgment or an electronic acknowledgment, such as an email, to the donor.
