Donation Guidelines at Country Sunshine Resale ShopDonation Guidelines

  • Tax deductible donations are accepted during our business hours or at local drop boxes.
  • Because of the tremendous workload involved in processing donations, we can only accept items that are in good condition.
  • We have no cleaning facilities and we ask that clothing be laundered and folded.
  • Furniture, in good condition, may be picked up at your convenience.

 

Rules for Claiming the Charitable Contribution Deduction

  • You must actually donate cash or property. A pledge or promise to donate is not deductible until you actually pay.
  • You must contribute to a qualified tax-exempt organization. Charities will let you know if they have received their 501(c)(3) tax-exempt status. Some organizations are not required to obtain 501(c)(3) status from the IRS. These include churches and other religious organizations.
  • You must be able to itemize. Giving to charity is a great tax planning strategy, but it only works for people who are eligible to itemize their deductions.
  • You must meet record keeping requirements. This includes saving canceled checks, acknowledgment letters from the charity, and appraisals for donated property.
