Is my gift to The Foundation for Evangelism tax deductible?
Yes. Because The Foundation for Evangelism is qualified as a tax-exempt organization under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, all gifts to a church-affiliated institution are tax deductible. To determine the amount you can deduct, consult your tax advisor.

Do I need a receipt to claim a tax deduction?
Under IRS rules, you cannot claim a tax deduction for a contribution of cash or other property unless you maintain a record of the contribution in the form of either a bank record (such as a cancelled check) or a written communication from the charity (such as a receipt or a letter) showing the name of the charity, the date of the contribution, and the amount of the contribution.

In addition, for a single gift of $250 or more, you are required to have a receipt from the charity to substantiate your claim.

Does the receipt have to be a physical note?
No. An electronic receipt is just as acceptable as a letter or postcard.

When will I receive my receipt from The Foundation for Evangelism?
Receipts are issued as promptly as possible as gifts are received.
