Receipts

[Tina]

I checked with Lori and they can only issue the tax deductible
receipts. So I will get a generic receipt book to take name and
addresses of people who donate and for people who buy items and want a
tax deductible receipt. NAF will have to mail them out.

So the letter looks great. Thanks Dawn.

Also I will go to Costco to get drinks and chips if you guys want to
see that also.

People who buy items can't deduct anything, as they are getting value
for what they pay. People who donate items are the ones who might be
able to get a tax write-off. They must prove to the IRS the value of
what they are donating. Certainly if we keep track of what was paid for
each item, the donor could get a deduction for that amount.

I am currently on vacation in Missoula. Going to be singing in a
concert tomorrow morning.

As for my presence at the September event, I will probably be there, but
not definite. I almost certainly won't be there the entire time. I can
handle the money that is collected after the fact, meaning that I can
assemble cash, turn it into a check and send the check to NAF with a
list of donors, addresses, and amounts so they can issue a confirmation
letter to each. Those on the scene will have to make that list.

Naf said they would provide receipt. I get them always from goodwill when I donate.

So, it sounds like we do need to keep track of names, addresses, and
how much each person earned and send that to NAF so that NAF can send
out the receipts. Is that correct Lori?

Hi Dawn

That is correct unless the person doesn't want a receipt but it's
still a
good idea to keep a report of everything so that your report matches
the
money you bring in.
