Ok, this is what I need information about. My tax lady is out for this year. She works starting January through tax day and then off the rest of the year. Don’t we wish as much? I have backed financially a rescue group for animals, getting the group started, paying for food for the furries, having them sprayed/neutured, animal veterinarian care and so on. I get no money from this and that is not my objective and never will be. I asked the lady running the business today, who has incorporated and also taken out the necessary licenses to operate, to give me receipts for the money she needs, I just do not want to hand over a check for X amount and then have to fix my taxes based on check stubs, would like actual documentation. She says the organization has to be 501c3 organization in order for me to itemize these along with my other taxes. I give to charity and thought I could count this exactly the same. Does anyone know this? I would call IRS but thought if anyone has run across this before, would rather start here first. TIA
