The Pines Care Center thanks you for your charitable contributions.  As per IRS Guidelines, (below) you will receive one tax letter per donation of $250 or more, if you did not already receive a receipt via email from our web site. 

​

When you make multiple donations to the same charity throughout the year, the IRS treats them as separate contributions for the purpose of the $250 threshold, unless they are part of a single payroll deduction or a split payment.

​

How the IRS Views Multiple Receipts

• Separate Receipts Allowed: You do not need one single, master receipt. You can use separate, individual letters for each donation, even if you gave multiple times to the same charity.

• Under $250 Per Gift: If each individual donation is under $250, you do not need a formal acknowledgment letter for each one. Regular bank records (like credit card statements or canceled checks) are legally sufficient.

• Over $250 Per Gift: If any single donation is $250 or more, you must have a formal acknowledgment letter specifically covering that unique date and amount.

​

Annual Summary Letters

​

Many charities prefer to issue a single end-of-year statement summarizing all your giving.

​

The IRS accepts these annual letters as long as the document explicitly breaks down: 

• Each individual contribution date and amount.

• The required "quid pro quo" statements for each gift (confirming whether any goods or services were provided in exchange).
