It also establishes a procedure for basic financial record keeping to be shared with NOAH. We aim to encourage potential event hosts to try fundraising, and to hear new suggestions from experienced hosts.  \nDocumentation for Tax Deductions  \nDonations to NOAH are tax deductible. Some event hosts ask local businesses to sponsor their event, or to donate materials or raffle/auction items. When soliciting potential donors or sponsors, you may remind them of the tax deduction, and use the template including NOAH’s non-profit status available on NOAH’s website. NOAH recommends utilizing the Fact Sheet in combination with the Official Verification Solicitation Letter or the Business Solicitation Template when reaching out to local businesses.  \nSpring for NOAH Fundraiser Forms and Templates  \n*If you are hosting an event for NOAH ’s SPF 3k-5k-10k and are in need of donation receipts or other forms specific to your event, please send us a  \nmessage at [fundraising@albinism.org](fundraising@albinism.org)  \nGuidance on issuing receipts for donations follows:  \nCash-Event hosts can issue receipts for cash donations. NOAH provides cash donation receipts for your convenience, though you may utilize other receipts if you prefer.  \nSpring for NOAH Logo-Cash Donation Receipts  \nBowl-a-thon Logo-Cash Donation Receipts  \nUpdated: January 2025 1  \nWhile utilizing NOAH’s Cash Donation Receipts is not required, cash donations must be recorded on a Donation Tracking Sheet so that NOAH can verify the donation.  \nSpring for NOAH Logo-Donation Tracking Sheet  \nBowl-a-thon Logo-Donation Tracking Sheet  \n**Please note that donations are contributions to NOAH for which no value is received in exchange. Buying a raffle ticket for example, is not tax deductible.  \nChecks-Those who donate by check will receive a receipt letter from NOAH.  \nIn-Kind- In-kind donations are donations of goods, such as printed invitations, food or raffle items. These types of donations can come from a donor, but are also frequently from event hosts themselves. Submit receipts for these goods to NOAH to receive an in-kind donation receipt for tax purposes.  \nElectronic-Receipts for electronic donations that go directly to NOAH are automatically generated and sent directly to the donor. Those instances are described below.  \nDonations and Purchases  \nEvent hosts often accept donations to NOAH, as well as payment for purchases of event tickets, raffle tickets, auction items, merchandise such as t-shirts, etc. They may accept donations and payment through multiple avenues, such as cash, checks, credit cards, and digital wallet apps.  \nUpdated: January 2025 2  \nCash-Cash should be secured until counted and recorded as event income on the income and expense reporting form. To avoid potential errors, do not intermingle NOAH donations with any other cash. If feasible, two different people should count the cash to verify the correct amount. Proceeds must then be forwarded to  NOAH as a check or money order, or sent through NOAH’s PayPal Giving Fund within 10 days of the fundraiser. Note your fundraiser name on your payment (for example, Jones Family Bowl-a-thon) .  \nChecks-Request that your donors make their checks payable to NOAH, and write in the name of the fundraiser. Donors can mail their checks directly to NOAH, PO Box 959 , East Hampstead, NH 03826-0959. If you receive any checks, please record them on the income and expense reporting form and forward them to NOAH within 10 days of the fundraiser.  \nCredit Cards-Using NOAH’s Peer to Peer fundraising portal, you can create a page to promote and manage your event. Donations via credit card can be accepted through your fundraising page.  \nSpring for NOAH Fundraising Dashboard  \nDonations are tax deductible, and the NO","cbCaib4zvTHcjxeK","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaib4zvTHcjxeK","pdf",166533,"English","# Managing Finances for NOAH Fundraising Events\n## Documentation for Tax Deductions\n## Spring for NOAH Fundraiser Forms and Templates\n## Guidance on Issuing Receipts for Donations\n## Donations and Purchases\n## Cash, Checks, and Credit Cards\n## Mobile Payment Apps\n## Entering Into Contracts\n## Event Expenses","[{\"question\":\"What financial records must event hosts keep for NOAH fundraising events?\",\"answer\":\"Hosts should use a basic financial record-keeping procedure shared with NOAH and record cash donations on a Donation Tracking Sheet.
