CHARITABLE GIVING IN COLORADO SPRINGS & THE SURROUNDING AREAS

Although well-intentioned, it’s sometimes the case that charitable donations have unexpected legal and tax implications that may negatively affect the donor. This is because there are certain rules and regulations that must be followed when making these charitable contributions. Failure to comply with these laws can result in serious consequences, including fines, civil litigation, and even criminal prosecution. It’s important to note that these laws may differ from state to state, depending on the type of charitable giving in question.

In terms of taxes, donors should also be aware that not all donations are tax-deductible. In order to qualify for a deduction, the donation must meet certain criteria set forth by the IRS. Additionally, donors must keep accurate records of their donations to claim a deduction on their taxes. Failure to do so could result in an audit or other penalties.
