Contributions to eligible 501(c)(3) organizations are deductible to the extent permitted by law and your individual circumstances. If goods or services are received in exchange for a payment, generally only the amount above their fair market value is deductible. Keep your receipt and consult a qualified tax adviser about your gift.
Keep your payment confirmation or receipt from the donation service. For each contribution of $250 or more, donors need a contemporaneous written acknowledgment to substantiate a deduction. It must include the organization's name, cash amount or description of a noncash gift, and whether goods or services were provided, with a description and good-faith value estimate when applicable. Contact hello@eyej.org if you need an acknowledgment or help with a receipt.
For payments exceeding $75 that are partly a contribution and partly payment for goods or services, the charity generally must provide a written disclosure with the solicitation or receipt showing the deductible portion and a good-faith estimate of the benefit's value. Exceptions may apply. A general website statement does not replace the disclosure for a specific transaction.
