- Taxes and Your Donation
A donation to SAILvation may also be a financial benefit at tax time. The following are some tax related considerations:
- As a nonprofit corporation, SAILvation is classified by the Internal Revenue Services as exempt under IRC Section 501(c)(3)
- Keeping records of your donations via receipts or letters from SAILvation acknowledging receipt of your donation are critical to support your tax deductions.
- Donations of more than $250 must be supported by record of payment from your bank. (Cancelled check, bank statement, etc.)
- As a volunteer, your services are not tax deductible, however you may be able to deduct some expenses if they are:
- Not reimbursed through your employer or anyone else
- Directly connected with the services you performed
- Expenses you had only as a result of your volunteer work
- Not personal, living or family expenses
- In most cases, only 50 percent of your adjusted gross income can be deducted. However, the overage may be carried over into the next fiscal year.
