Title: Impact of Theft on Charity Shops: BBC Report Hey everyone, just came across this thought-provoking BBC article about how theft is forcing charity shops to shut their changing rooms. The article sheds light on the challenges faced by these shops and the impact of theft on their operations. It's a great reminder for us all to be mindful of the consequences of theft on organizations trying to make a difference. Check out the full article on BBC and let's start a conversation on how we can support charity shops in combating theft. #CharityShops #TheftImpact #SupportCommunity https://ift.tt/e0qQoxr

Very curious about this as well - how is your NPO shifting donors away from mailing in gifts, or *are* you supporting the shift? I wonder how NPOs inadvertently turn donors into targets with recognizable reply pieces bearing names, addresses, and CC info (with CVV!)...

"Reclaim Our Names" is a project that provides crucial support for Idahoans who are seeking a legal name change. From empowering trans people to secure their affirming names to helping survivors re-establish their identities after divorce and beyond, we’re raising funds to make the legal name change process accessible to folks across the state.   This project is taking place during Idaho Gives Week (Monday, April 29 to Thursday, May 2)—only 4 days!   And unlike many organizations that participate in Idaho Gives Week, the The Idaho Coalition Against Sexual & Domestic Violence is not using donations to support regular operating. 100% of donations will directly support costs (such as filing fees, essential records, mandatory notices, etc.) for individuals who are getting their name changed.   The Idaho Coalition is set up for early donations, so folks can donate now instead of waiting until next week! (https://lnkd.in/gKJrX-a9) The Idaho Coalition will match your donation, so if you give $50, that amount will be matched by another $50. Your contribution to this project has double the impact. All donations are considered charitable and tax-deductible. Each donation enters people in a raffle to win prizes: (r)affle items include: $100 at Craig’s Tattoo, Caldwell $20 at Broadcast Coffee, Boise $100 at Edward’s Greenhouse, Boise $100 at Amano Restaurante, Caldwell 3 books at Rediscovered Books $95 at Mullet Proof $275 at Cat Photography  & more.

When I have my initial consultation with a prospect, one of the questions I ask is, "What are your goals?" I encourage not only talking about business goals, but personal goals as well since our businesses usually play a vital role in helping us achieve our personal goals. When I started my firm, I asked myself the same question. One of the pillars I wanted to build my business on was giving. Before I even had any clients, I decided I would donate 5% of my revenue. For a couple years I donated to Operation Underground Railroad (OUR) but last year I made the switch to Doors to Freedom. It is also an organization that helps victims of trafficking but they are local to my area. I love what they stand for and how they help rehabilitate and care for victims. It's been really humbling each quarter to review my revenue and make my donation knowing that I wouldn't normally be able to donate or donating the amount I'm able to without my business. What are some goals that you've had for your business that you've achieved? Have you set goals that would impact others? If not, I highly encourage it! 😎 #bookkeeping #fractionalCFO #donations

Beware of Scams: The IRS warns that scammers are exploiting recent natural disasters and global conflicts to solicit fraudulent donations for supposed victims. Donating to these deceitful charities not only supports criminal activities but can also lead to IRS troubles if you attempt to claim a deduction that is later disallowed. Safeguard yourself by utilizing the Tax-Exempt Organization Search tool on the IRS website. This ensures both the legitimacy of your chosen charity and the validity of your deduction. Stay vigilant and donate wisely. #IRSAlert #CharityScams #DonationSafety Need help with your taxes this year, visit https://lnkd.in/dpZVkgQ.

Charitably inclined individuals should be aware of groups that are masquerading as charitable organizations to attract donations. The fraudsters use fake charities as cover to not only obtain money, but also gather sensitive personal and financial information that can be exploited for tax-related identity fraud. When taxpayers contribute to an organization, they may qualify for a tax deduction, but only if they itemize their deductions. To qualify for a deduction, the charity must be an IRS-recognized tax-exempt organization. Donors should check the IRS’s Tax Exempt Organization Search online tool to ensure the legitimacy of a charity. For more details: https://bit.ly/3PVQwWh
