Donor Privacy Policy:
Hydro Angels Over America has a strict donor privacy policy which states that (1) it will not trade, share or sell a donor's personal information with anyone else, nor send donor mailings on behalf of other organizations. When you donate, your information is kept confidential. (2) We will only share personal information once the donor has given us specific permission to do so. (Example) (a) Your name will appear on the online fundraiser page if you donate by credit card and do not select anonymous. (b) We will publish your name alongside all donors in our appreciation feature printed in the annual report. We do not include address or phone number.
Taxes and Your Donation
Beyond an investment from your heart, a donation can also be a financial benefit come tax time.
Here are some considerations to ensure you get the maximum benefit from your generous donation:
- As a nonprofit corporation, HAOA is classified by the Internal Revenue Service as exempt under IRS Section 501(c)(3) and as a public charity under IRS Section 509.
- Keep records of your donations, including receipts or letters from HAOA acknowledging receipt of your donation.
- Donations of more than $250 must be supported by record of payment from your bank (cancelled check, bank statement, etc). If you volunteer, you cannot deduct the value of your services, but 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
- Generally, no more than 50 percent of your adjusted gross income can be deducted. If you donate more, carry that undeductable amount over into the next year.
In addition to donations from individuals, the following ways of giving also qualify for maximum tax benefits:
Private Foundations
As a public charity, HAOA is qualified to receive grants from private foundations. A grant gift will help your foundation satisfy its annual distribution requirements while helping HAOA accomplish its mission of serving infants to elderly and their families.
Donations of Securities
In addition to donating cash to HAOA, individual donors may make gifts of publicly traded securities. The donor is not taxed on any gain in the property, and the donor may deduct the fair market value of the gifted securities against other income (subject to certain limitations).
Donors should seek the advice of a professional tax advisor.
