501 (c)(3)
The Foundation is a 501 (c)(3) charitable organization as recognized by the Internal Revenue Service. Charitable contributions to non-profit organizations are welcomed by tax laws. Federal income tax laws allow deductions for the amount in excess of the fair market value of goods or services you receive. Tax advantages vary with the gift and the donor’s financial circumstances. The tax deductibility of your gift is based on the amount of your contribution, less the fair market value of the benefits you receive. All Donors have the opportunity to waive benefits in order to maximize the tax deductibility of their contribution. The Foundation encourages donors to consult with their tax counsel or attorneys as to the actual benefit to the donor or to his or her estate from various forms of suggested gift transactions.
