Are donations tax-deductible?

As a rule of thumb, donations are tax-deductible if the campaign's beneficiary has 501(c)(3) status with the IRS. Givebutter defines the “beneficiary” as the final recipient of any funds raised.

For users:

To help your donors take a tax deduction, we recommend adding tax-pertinent information to the thank-you message sent to donors after donating, so that it is included in their receipt. Learn more about how tax receipts work on Givebutter and customizing your thank-you message.

For donors:

If you are unsure as to whether your donation is tax-deductible, we recommend contacting the campaign organizer directly.
